Nice Story for a Dreary Day

On a day when the Cavs lost, the U.S. Olympic Hockey team went down in flames, and the stories about spring training just serve to remind you that the Tribe's in Florida, and you're not, I thought you might like this story from my old stomping grounds. It's about a waterboy for Greece-Athena high school in Rochester, New York--and no, his name isn't Bobby Boucher.

I guess I should've said former waterboy, because that's a more accurate description of him, after his coach decided to reward him for his dedication by putting him in uniform for the last game of his senior year. Of course, an even more accurate description of him now is the new holder of the school record for three pointers in a single game. Check out the kid's story here.

Update: The kid's story's going national in a big way. Check out the CBS News' video here.
