Way To Go Appalachian State!
Sophomore wide receiver #5 Thomas Henningan motions for fellow wideout #18 Senior Brad Absher to replace him on the field for the last regular season play of his senior year at Kidd Brewer Stadium. Absher, a 5th year walk-on player who just won a scholarship this year, had no idea what was going on!
(Guess you have to have lived a similar situation to fully appreciate the impact of Thomas' thoughtfulness for his teammate; especially after reading some of the responses!)
As one responder stated: "they play for the name on the front of their jersey not the one on the back"
WOW!!
P.S. App State (9-2) will have at least one more home game for Thomas & Brad...they host the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns (7-5) Saturday at 12:00 in the Sun Belt Championship game.
