Justin Kievit, Middle School Wrestler, Lets Boy with Cerebral Palsy Win Match

Posted on the 10 May 2013 by Real Talk @talkrealdebate2012

This week’s viral video is something I saw late last year that I thought was so tremendous that it warranted a posting almost 5 months later.  Justin Kievit is a middle school wrestler.  In a selfless act, Justin let his opponent win his match.  His opponent, Jared Stevens, has cerebral palsy. 

I found Justin’s act humble.  I wanted to share the video because I wanted to showcase that there is more to life than winning.  Sure Justin might have lost his match, but he won so much more.  I think Jared will never forget this moment in his life.  There are so many more important things in life than sports. 

I hope you remember that.
