Morgan’s Message Pickleball a Big Dill! 🥒
Our 2nd Annual Pickleball Tournament, proudly sponsored by our Morgan’s Message Club 🦋, was a great success! From exciting rallies to lots of laughter, it was incredible to see everyone come together for such a meaningful cause.
Morgan’s Message is a nationwide movement dedicated to breaking the stigma surrounding mental health in the student-athlete community. Our group works to create safe spaces for open conversations, promote mental wellness, and ensure that no athlete feels alone in their journey.
All proceeds from the tournament go toward funding future club initiatives, events, and mental health advocacy efforts—helping us continue to make an impact both on and off the courts, tracks, pools, rinks, fields, etc.
Thank you to everyone who played, supported, and made this event so special, and congratulations to this year’s winners: Sam Krasner and Brody Kendall!

Worcester drivers—safety starts with you. If you see a school bus with flashing red lights, make sure to stop and wait. Remember to always stop when the stop-arm is out. #WeAreWorcester
When young leaders step up, hope grows. 💙 Students from Stephen Decatur High School’s National Honor Society, led by April and Sophia, brought creativity and heart to our SOLD OUT - Bingo For Hope 💙 event by creating Mystery Boxes packed with gift cards and jewelry donated by generous local businesses.
These surprise boxes added even more excitement to the night and helped raise $1,000 for Diakonia, supporting individuals, families, and Veterans experiencing or at risk of homelessness across Maryland’s Lower Eastern Shore.
A special thank you to the students and advisors who made this possible. Your leadership is proof that when community and compassion come together, hope wins big. 💙

Celebrating Elijah Collick 🎉
• First ever Stephen Decatur High School 4x State Champion 🥇🥇🥇🥇
• 2x Dual team State Champion 🏆🏆
• A school record 181 career wins 🔥🔥
Elijah has proudly worn a Decatur singlet and carried the team on his back time and time again over the past four seasons.
He’s helped make so many of his teammates better in the practice room and has led them both on and off the mat.
He closes this chapter, but another begins at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
We know he’ll take on every challenge that comes his way just like he did at Decatur.
Thank you, Elijah!
