In case you didn’t see this yet, here’s a feel good story that thankfully is becoming more and more frequent. It’s about sportsmanship and a love of the game going hand in hand. Matt Ziesel has Down Syndrome, but that didn’t stop him from living out his dream of scoring a touchdown in a football game. Always ready to play, that’s how his coaches describe Matt. And thanks to their opponents, Maryville HS, who were up already 46-0 with 10 seconds to go in the game, St. Joseph Benton was able to hand-off on there last play of the game and, well, see for yourself.
I’ve included a great article below that recaps the story very well. Enjoy.
