Davies’ Division 4 Superbowl champions had an unforgettable experience as they welcomed Joe Andruzzi, former New England Patriots offensive guard and three-time Super Bowl champion, to share his incredible journey and wisdom.
Joe Andruzzi discussing his Super Bowl rings.Joe spoke candidly about the "roller coaster of life," sharing stories from his football career, his battle with non-Hodgkin’s Burkitt’s lymphoma, and the lessons he’s learned along the way. His message was simple but powerful: set goals, work hard, and stay focused but accept the twist and turns life may bring, laughter is the best medicine, be kind, and look for opportunities to give back to those you love and your community.

As founder of the Joe Andruzzi Foundation (JAF), Joe turned his personal experiences into a mission to support cancer patients and their families. Since 2008, JAF has provided financial assistance to New England families battling cancer, helping them focus on recovery instead of financial stress.

We’re grateful for Joe’s visit and the inspiration he brought to our champions. His story reminds us of the power of perseverance, community, and kindness. 💙

Thank you, Joe Andruzzi, for showing our champions what it means to win in life, not just on the field! 🏈
