Isaiah Márquez-Greene couldn’t have been more surprised when the New York Rangers gave him a HUGE gift. He has been through a whole lot more than some adults have. A scholarship for Sandy Hook survivor is what we needed.
He is a survivor of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting that happened in December of 2012. It’s crazy to think that this was eleven years ago. Isaiah unfortunately lost his sister (who was only six years old) in the shooting.
He thought that he was going to receive a jersey from New York Rangers captain Jacob Trouba. However, he didn’t realize that he had a lot more to get from him.
