@espn No clue how this guy is so composed after having possibly the worst thing happen to you. Strong man, wish him the best.

@espn Didn’t this kid score the winning goal in the quarter/semifinals too?

@espn How is Robert Dorgan related to Colon Dorgan?

@espn Throw back to 1 hour ago: x.com/espn/status/20…

@espn @FieldYates His family was killed by his trans-identifying father. Important part of the story you left out… Great story of resilience, though. Happy for him.

@espn Blackstone Valley Co-op champs in 4OT! Colin Dorgan scores the game-tying goal after losing family in last month’s tragedy 😢🏆

@espn From heartbreak to heroics: Dorgan ties the game in the final minute, Blackstone Valley wins RI Div II title 🔥

@espn Definition of resilience and the support of a coach and team. Congratulations to Colin and BV

@espn Man, that goal wasn't just a tie it was a statement. Colin carrying all that weight and still delivering in the clutch... chills. What a way to honor his family and the team. Congrats to Blackstone Valley. 💪🏒

@espn Sometimes sports give us moments that words can’t fully capture. This is one of them. 🕊️⚽

@espn Main character energy in the most heartbreaking way. Respect.

@espn Well done Colin. Your family is so proud of you.

@espn So glad they won after such tragedy like that. Especially Colin. 🙏❤️

@espn 🏒❤️ What an unreal 4OT comeback by Blackstone Valley Co-op! Colin Dorgan’s last-minute tying goal after February’s heartbreaking family tragedy… his loved ones truly were with him every step. How has this community rally turned tragedy into championship gold? 🔥

@espn They need an ESPY, hint hint! 🖤💛

The shooting at Dennis M. Lynch Arena in Pawtucket was carried out by Robert Dorgan, targeting family members; he died by self-inflicted gunshot after bystanders intervened. All Rhode Island high school sports paused for a week, with the team taking 18 days off and mandatory counseling before returning united.

@espn Praying for him When things slow down and the reality of what happened hits.. just gonna pray hard for him and for those around him

@espn @spittinchiclets they did it boys. Such a heartwarming story. There is good in hockey

@espn that game-tying goal must've felt surreal for him, what a moment! did they celebrate big after?

@espn Less than a minute left, 4OT, and he still finds a way to honor his family. Absolute legend 🙏

@espn What an emotional and heroic moment for Blackstone Valley Co-op and Colin Dorgan 🏒❤️ Scoring the game-tying goal under such circumstances is truly inspiring 💪✨

@espn Bless this kid 🙏🙏

@espn Sports are the only place where the universe actually balances itself out like this. Chills.

@espn Somebody: I need to make a state championship hat. I was thinking ... State ChampionS Rhode Island Boom. And you can use it for every sport. 🤯

@espn Colin Dorgan embodies the human spirit's capacity for resilience. Champions rise through adversity and he and his teammates did just that. Congrats to the Blackstone Valley hockey team.

@espn After the tragedy on Senior Day, to see him score and win in quadruple OT… I’m not crying, you’re crying 😭

@espn Wow well done Colin , you are doing great and we will always be with you and your family

@espn Good old ESPN leaving a few key details out. But congrats to this young man!

@espn He’s from the town I live in and it’s been amazing seeing the community rally around him and his sister following the tragedy that occurred. His composure has been incredible and he truly deserves everything good that happens to him.

@espn @GoldenKnights get this man to vegas and have him crank the siren.

@espn Get this team an ESPY.

@espn Kid is tougher than a two dollar steak

@espn "killed in a shooting" Were there any unusual circumstances in the "shooting"? Like his deranged troon father was the murderer, for example.

@espn Whose family was killed by their mentally ill trans father. Get it right.

@espn “Let’s write killed in a shooting and leave out the simple facts they were murdered by a mentally ill man.” -@espn

@espn Pure resilience ❤️ Blackstone Valley Prep Mayoral Academy turned pain into power. What Colin Dorgan did in that moment is bigger than hockey.
