Touching Them All



You've got to watch this video by ESPN's Tom Rinaldi regarding Western Oregon's Sara Tucholsky. In a day when sports headlines have more to do with the off-field misbehavior of superstars, this story reminds us about what is good and right with athletic competition. That there is something more important than winning and loosing. And that the kind of person we are becoming will last long after our playing days are over.

My favorite line from the video segment: "It's a great moment when someone has character to step up and do the right thing at the right time."

Enjoy the video. Might we all be inspired to do the right thing at the right time!
