The Agganis All-Star Games are played in memory of legendary Lynn athlete Harry Agganis, an All-
American quarterback at Lynn Classical and Boston University. He was expected to be the first-round
draft pick of the Cleveland Browns, but he opted for a professional baseball career and was the starting
first baseman for the Boston Red Sox when he died of a pulmonary embolism in 1955 at the age of 26.
The Agganis Foundation was formed shortly thereafter with a mission of awarding college scholarships
in Agganis’ name. Since 1955, the Foundation has awarded more than $2.5 million in scholarships to
1,062 student-athletes. The Agganis All-Star Games serve as a fundraiser for the scholarship program.
