Petition to change the name of Underhill Field to The Moussa Fofana Field.

The Issue

On behalf of the Columbia student body, we are asking the school’s administration, as well as the Mayors of Maplewood and South Orange, to consider renaming Underhill Field in memory of our friend and teammate Moussa Fofana, who died tragically and needlessly on June 6th. Moussa was a passionate soccer player, who dreamed of playing professionally, and who spent countless hours practicing at Underhill Field. It is also where he died. He had a bright future ahead of him and his light went out far too soon. We hope that by renaming the field after him, we will allow his memory to live on in some way and make him proud. 

Please sign this petition to show your support of this idea. Our goal is to get 10,000 signatures by June 16th.

Thank you,

Lily Kubany and Lindsay Gross
