Boston College football added a new member to the program on a special day at the Yawkey Athletics Center.
The Eagles announced Tuesday that seven-year-old Logan March has signed with the team through Team IMPACT. March, who lives with Gould Syndrome, epilepsy and cortical visual impairment, put pen to paper inside the Murray Room and will be part of the program over the next two years.
His involvement won’t stop at the ceremony. Logan is set to take part in games, practices and other team events as Boston College welcomes him into the football family.
Team IMPACT, a national non-profit, pairs children facing serious illness and disability with college athletic teams through a multi-year program built around socialization, empowerment and resilience. The organization says its model is designed to create a relationship that helps both the child and the team grow.
Boston College has been part of that mission for a while now. The school has worked with Team IMPACT for 15 years and has matched 36 children across 18 different teams.
"We're incredibly excited about Logan joining the Boston College Football family," said Gregory P. Barber '69 and Family Head Coach Bill O'Brien.
"Our program is built on the belief that every young person is given the opportunity to grow. Logan makes our team better not only on the field, but as people off the field as well."
Founded in 2011, Team IMPACT says it has matched more than 4,000 children with 750+ colleges and universities in all 50 states, reaching more than 75,000 student-athletes.

Ashton Cunningham Is Emerging In A Crucial Battle For BC's Secondary
Bill O'Briens second season at Boston College is already putting a spotlight on the defensive backfield, and Ashton Cunningham is one of the names that keeps coming up for good reason. The second-year defensive back got on the field as a freshman, and that early experience now gives him a real chance to push for a starting cornerback role as the Eagles sort out their secondary heading into 2026.
Cunninghams rise matters because BC is ranking its most important players not just by what they did last fall, but by how much they could shape the next one. For a defense that needs reliable answers on the back end, the battle for those corner spots will be one of the more important storylines of the offseason, and Cunningham has positioned himself right in the middle of it.

Boston College Opens With A Chance To Set A Different Tone
Boston College womens soccer gets its 2026 season started with a familiar kind of first test, a home opener against Siena at Newton Soccer Field on a 4:00 p.m. kickoff. The Eagles bring back a solid core from last year, including 13 returning players, giving the program a chance to build continuity right away rather than spending September trying to find its footing.
Sophie Reale returns as the leading goalscorer, while Olivia Shippee is back in goal after earning a starting role and a captains designation, two stabilizing pieces for a team trying to establish an early rhythm. Siena arrives with experience of its own, led by First Team All-MAAC midfielder Catherine Rogers and goalkeeper Cate Burns, so Boston College will get an immediate read on where it stands in a matchup that should say plenty about the tone of the fall.
