| Brady is an eleven
year old with the heart of a champion.
Always with a smile on his face, Brady
is the spirit of our team. He has been
active in youth sports throughout his
young life, until this past year when he
was diagnosed with cancer. Doctors at
Johns Hopkins removed a tumor from the
base of his skull, which was determined
to be malignant. Although the outlook
was dire there were two things working
in Brady’s favor: (1) Brady’s spirit and
personality, and (2) doctors informed
the family that they successfully
removed the entire tumor. Brady,
however, is not out of the woods as he
has begun a twelve week regimen of
radiation treatment that will be
followed up by several months of
chemotherapy. Brady’s teammates could
always rely on him to be there for them
and he continually and successfully
locked down his cornerback position and
defended the biggest vulnerability on
the football field –the outside edge. No
one beat Brady on his side of the field
and he met everyone challenge head on
without fail. When Brady’s dad,
Rich, told him of his prognosis his
first reaction was to say, "Dad, what
about football? Football is my life."
His first thoughts were about the sport,
game, and team that he loves. Rich told
him that it just meant a year on the
injured reserve list, which a lot of
players do during their careers, and he
could get back to LANCER football after
his treatments. Brady will still be
there for his teammates as he has
accepted a coaching position on the
team. But right now is the time when
Brady needs his teammates the most as he
faces the biggest battle of his young
life. So we ask that each of you join
our team, BRADY’S TEAM, and help him and
his family during this difficult time.
Now is the time we can all unite
together as Lancers for one of our own
