Saint Francis Hospital was proud to welcome team members and mascot Dillon from Hartford Athletic as they celebrated the team’s 2025 USL Jägermeister Cup title. As part of a “trophy tour” around the city, Hartford Athletic chose Saint Francis as their first stop, showing off the team’s first championship hardware.

Dillon took the Hartford Athletic's first championship trophy on a tour around Saint Francis, visiting with patients and colleagues.

After being welcomed in the hospital Rotunda by Valerie Powell-Stafford, President of Saint Francis, the group visited with patients and colleagues around the hospital, making stops at the Cancer Center and several inpatient units.

As the official health care provider and founding partner of Hartford Athletic, Trinity Health Of New England provides the players with high-quality medical care from physicians and providers throughout the season. The partnership underscores a commitment to promoting health, wellness, and community spirit through sports.
