Feel good story of the week from ESPN

I saw this story on Sportscenter today. If I can find the video, I'll embed it later. For now, the story is on ESPNs website. Here's an excerpt:

"Western Oregon senior Sara Tucholsky had never hit a home run in her career. Central Washington senior Mallory Holtman was already her school's career leader in them. But when a twist of fate and a torn knee ligament brought them face to face with each other and face to face with the end of their playing days, they combined on a home run trot that celebrated the collective human spirit far more than individual athletic achievement."

Read the rest of the story here and try not to get a lump in your throat!
