Junior High Boys Leave Basketball Court to Stand Up for Girl with Down Syndrome

I LOVE what these young guys from Wisconsin did. They were playing in a basketball game when they heard a team cheerleader who has Down syndrome being bullied by a fan. They refused to stand for it.

The boys play basketball at Lincoln Middle School, in Kenosha. During a recent game, they walked off the court to supoort Desiree Andrews.

Scooter Terrien was one that stood up for Desiree and said, "It's not fair when other people get treated wrong because we're all the same. We're all created the same. God made us the same way." Well done gentlemen.

The three have ended their season and played their final game in the gym, which will now be known as 'Dee's House,' in her honor. The family considers the tribute "sweet, kind, awesome, amazing"... kind of like those three young men.
