Boston College Is Doing Something Cool Saturday

((HT: ESPN))

BC is playing Southern Cal Saturday and finding a really cool way to remember those impacted by 9-11 at the game...

The school is giving out 6,000 red bandannas at the game in memory of a former BC lacrosse player who was one of many heroes on that day...

The team is also wearing an Under Armour created red bandanna pattern spread all throughout their uniform display and coaching apparel.

From the school:

The Crowther family will be on hand for the 8 p.m., nationally-televised game, which is deemed Service Day, celebrating many groups and individuals from the BC community who epitomize the Univerisity's mission of "Men and Women for Others."

Here's the story of Welles Crowther so we can all never forget

UCF Fans Wear Red Bandanas Vs BC

((HT: MyFoxOrlando))

The story of Welles Crowther became more well known as we got closer to the anniversary of the 9-11 tragedies...

His post-Boston College career as a lacrosse player took him to one of the World Trade Center towers in a career in finance. He always wanted to do something more instead of sit behind a desk.

He rescued somewhere close to a dozen people from his tower before he lost his life when the buildings collapsed. When a story came out in the New York Times about someone wearing a red bandana doing this duty, Crowther's parents knew it was Welles.

As a tribute this weekend, UCF students got behind the idea of wearing bandannas like Crowther's in memoriam...

They did exactly that... here's the genesis of the idea...
