Sportsmanship in Action - Caught on Video


The 2012 Division III girls State Championship was underway, Meghan Vogel, a junior from West Liberty Salem, in west central Ohio had won the 1,600-meter race and now she was in last place running the 3,200-meter race. 

With about 50 meters to go, Meghan noticed her opponent, Arden McMath, legs buckle and knew she would be unable to finish the event.

Even though she knew she would be disqualified, Meghan, came up right next to Arden and helped her cross the finishline.

Sportsmanship like this surely won't be forgotten.
