Sportsmanship award winner says it's all about respect

Posted on 08:05 by Unknown
Do you remember the last time you heard anyone say anything good about a referee? That's a hard one. Do you remember someone helping a referee in a tough situation? Yeah, I'm drawing a blank too. But are you ready for this? There's a coach who actually rushed to the aid of a referee. I won't give away Coach John Heuther's (pictured) story here. Besides, Kathleen Nelson of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch tells it better than I do. Check out her column by clicking on the following link - Sportsmanship award winner says it's all about respect. Stories like this one that uplift and inspire will be on display at the National Sportsmanship Awards presented by Maryville University this Saturday, April 30 at Edward Jones St. Louis Headquarters. A few tickets remain, so call 314-345-5122 to order. Until next time...

Be a Good Sport!
