I first tried out for football with a friend; we were really too
small for even the junior varsity team. However,
coach didn’t send us home, and for years he watched over us, and let us grow into
the football players we would become. This
weekend I had a body echo as I heard him say, “Baun, go in and show them how it’s
done”. I would never be an offensive
guard, but coach knew I always gave 120%.
After an almost perfect trap block I ran back to the sidelines, where he
hit the top of my helmet, “Good job”. I
felt his hand again this weekend as I was thinking about what makes me special
- I TRY. What makes you special?
