Alex Concannon

Morgan’s Message® Education Program Liaison

Alex Concannon was born and raised on Long Island, NY. He attended Syosset High School, received his undergraduate degree from John’s Hopkins University, and his masters degree from Hofstra University. He was a member of the Johns Hopkins Men’s lacrosse team for 5 years and the Hofstra Men’s lacrosse team for his graduate year.

Alex suffered health complications post college, visiting multiple specialists who couldn’t find an answer for him for over a year. This took a huge toll on his mental health but through support of friends, family, and doctors, he was able to persevere.

In the Spring of 2023, Alex spoke to the Hofstra Men’s Lacrosse team about Morgan’s Message and was also a guest on The Mental Matchup podcast. He received many messages from college athletes seeking advice on how to overcome their struggles. This inspired Alex to join the Morgan’s Message staff where he hopes to help athletes who are dealing with the mental struggles similar to the ones he had faced.
