Special Olympics Soccer Match

This night was absolutely incredible! The annual FC Dallas Special Olympics match took place after FC Dallas played against the New York Red Bulls. Over the last three years, I’ve played as a partner player and now serve as an ambassador for the SO organization. I had the privilege, for the second year, to interview the athletes during halftime about their take on the first half as well as their overall experience.

Let me win, but if I cannot win, let me be brave in the attempt. -Special Olympics Oath

I am so grateful to have the opportunity to be a part of the FCD Special Olympics team. I cherish each moment with my teammates-my dear friends. Thank you to Globe Life, the FCD Foundation, Special Olympics and everyone who made this possible. It’s a dream come true for all of us.
