Story: Rivals cooperate on touchdown for player with Down syndrome

Every once and a while we like to shed some positive light on those who deserve it. True sportsmanship was shown by the players and coaches in a Benton vs. Maryville high school football game when they let a player score and avoid a shut out victory. The winning team allowed Matt Ziesel, a freshman with down syndrome to rush in for a touchdown during the closing minutes of the game. It has left an impact on the community and reminded many that sometimes it's not always about winning.
