Players, coaches, and family members gathered at the Kneller Athletic Center at Clark University for a day of basketball training and exhibition games to honor the 14-year-old student athlete, who died tragically in September 2023 after participating in the Paqui “Once Chip Challenge.”

Basketball was Harris’s passion and he played in multiple basketball leagues including Saint Bernard’s Church and the Amateur Athletic Union. “Harris loved the game of basketball, he played every day,” his mother, Lois Wolobah, told 7 News Boston. “I miss him a whole lot and I’m sure that he’s here in spirit and playing with his friends today.”

Students from both middle and high school came together to share in a day of sport, celebrate Harris’s life, and remember the joy and dedication the young man brought to the community. Sheff & Cook Founding Partner Doug Sheff was in attendance to support the Wolobah family.

Speaking to CBS News Boston, Douglas Hill, Harris’s former coach, remembered the teen: “He was full of energy, full of drive. He really found an outlet through basketball…he was a kid that didn’t want to leave the gym.”

Harris was also a rising sophomore and dedicated student at Doherty Memorial High School in Worcester, MA. His loss has been deeply felt in the community.

Sheff & Cook is honored to represent the Wolobah family in their wrongful death case against Paqui, Hershey Co., and Walgreens, among others. The Wolobah family hopes that this case will send a message to all who would market dangerous products to children, especially utilizing social media.
