Maybe it is not all about winning. Â Naturally athletes are all competitive. Â However, middle schooler Justin Kievit showed that it may be more important how you play the game. Â Kievet was at a wrestling match with his school when he learned that his opponent was going to be Jared Stevens. Stevens has played in a few football games and helps coach his school’s basketball team. Â However, Stevens suffers from cerebral palsy and lives his life in a wheelchair. Â Kievit was chosen to be Jared’s competitor because they all know he would put winning aside and display the best sportsmanship. Â That is exactly what Kievit did when he shook Jared’s hand to start the match and pulled Jared over him in order to pin him. Â It really says something when a twelve-year-old can show more maturity and humanity than some professional athletes. Â Maybe we can all learn something from this video. Â Warning: You will most likely tear up watching it!
