The Penn-Trafford and North Hills football teams will honor the memory of victims of the Squirrel Hill synagogue shooting by wearing special decals on their helmets during Friday night’s WPIAL Class 5A first-round playoff game in Harrison City.

The black and white decals, circles with the words “Stronger Than Hate” emblazoned on them, were designed by students in the Penn-Trafford graphics department and will be distributed to players on both teams.

There also will be a moment of silence for 11 seconds to honor the 11 victims.
