Our story…
CTE is a devastating neurodegenerative disease caused by repetitive head impacts in sports and military service that can only be diagnosed after death. We are raising funds to support the Concussion Legacy Foundation’s End CTE campaign, which is leading efforts to prevent, diagnose, and treat CTE while supporting patients and families fighting the disease.
14 of the first 18 Ivy League football players who have had their brain examined have had CTE. We are participating in memory of three Harvard football players we have lost to CTE, including Toby Brundage '95. Chris Eitzmann '99-'00 is currently being studied at our brain bank. (The other members are not yet public)
We are competing against the other Ivy League schools including Yale, Penn, Columbia, Brown, Princeton, Dartmouth, and Cornell to see who can raise the most funds. To remind us we’re all in the fight to End CTE together, the losing captains will film themselves singing the winner’s fight song and CLF will post the video to their social media accounts (like last year). Thank you for joining and supporting our team!
