Do you remember Jason McElwain???

How can we forget the story of Jason McElwain, the autistic team manager from Greece Athena High School, who inspired us all with this story a few years back.

Regardless of the score and of how hard the defense was playing, Jason took advantage of the one opportunity he had to fulfill his dream of playing basketball. What Jason accomplished during this game was truly remarkable. He was 7-13 from the field and 6-10 from the three point line. More importantly, aside from making a few baskets, he has inspired other people to be ready when they get their shot!

Moments like these are what makes sports so special!
