One small act, one big inspiration

BRADFORD—With 17 seconds left on the clock, Oxbow High School’s junior varsity basketball team was down by 35 points, and it was clear Danville High School was about to take the win. Noah Hatch had just been subbed in. The Oxbow freshman has cerebral palsy and only started team basketball this school year. Suddenly, all eyes in the gymnasium were on him. In the corner near his home basket, a teammate passed him the ball. Hatch took his shot and missed. Kohl Guinard, a Danville freshman guard, got the rebound. Instead of taking the ball down the court as expected, he passed it back to Hatch.
