Sports can be a great way to teach young people that some things are more important than a final score.
Over the weekend, one high schooler got to live out his dream, scoring a touchdown on his senior night.
However, this was no ordinary touchdown for a senior, as you can see in the video below. No, this 80-yard touchdown was scored by Sepp Shirey, who has cerebral palsy:

After Shirey’s first carry doesn’t result in many yards, he gets another carry, and stays on his feet for an incredible 80-yard score, much to the delight of his teammates, opponents and fans.
This was a great moment that Shirey will never forget. Hopefully the players involved will never forget the incredible gesture, either.
