A Note from Current Topsfield Tories Manager -
"... just before the New Year, former Topsfield Tories player/manager Ben Hathaway passed away. Benny was a great teammate and definitely one of the great reasons to play for the Tories. We had some terrible years record wise, but I don't know of anyone that had more fun when times were tough than Benny. He made coming to games fun. He loved the game and loved playing in the ITL. Even after he stopped playing, opposing teams would ask about Benny and say how hilarious he was. RIP to one of the best people to wear a Tories uniform."
