THis is the reason why we have sports. Character. Thank you for finding these little known stories that inspire us all, no matter what age we are.
Another great story by Amy. Thank you, and thanks to great student athletes like those mentioned in the article. I agree with Dave this is what high school athlectics is all about.
What a great story. I don't like Manti. They dominate in size, which leads to domination on the scoreboard. But I have watched Tylan and he deserves all the recognition he is getting. Despite his success he is humble and a gracious opponent.
great job mark. You are a great asset to the community and to high school sports. Keep spreading the spirit of the bucks.
What happens to the kids who never make the team but would like to play? Do they ever do anything inspiring?
Great story shows you what working hard and team work can do for you.
Thanks for the story and for this young man's great example. It makes me proud to be a Templar all over again.
