"Our goal through this year’s tournament is to support a research facility that is testing a robust liquid biopsy platform for diagnosing brain tumors, especially for Germ Cell Tumors. 

The cost for each sample is around $1800. They have around 50 cases/samples they need to test in the coming months.  Nick Strong Foundation is excited about this new partnership with more information to come in the next few months."

Milford Daily News: "Franklin lacrosse hosts 'Nick Gaspar Night'"

"Around 6:40 PM on Monday, a line of 21 police cars slowly drove onto the track at Pisini Stadium.

They weren’t there for any trouble, however. They were part of a pregame ceremony for a special young man.

In the middle of the motorcade was a gray SUV driven by Tim Gaspar. Gaspar’s 15-year old son, Nick, a freshman at Franklin High, and the rest of the Gaspar family were also in the car. The car circled around the track before coming to a stop on the far sideline at the 50-yard line.
