Autistic 5’6″ student Jason McElwain, didn’t make the Greece Athena High School basketball team. But Coach Jim Johnson, with his heart of gold, brought him on as Team Manager, a role he ended up holding for three years, missing only one game in that time.

Word got out before the last home game of his senior year that Coach Johnson had told Jason to suit up this time, and that he would try his hardest to get him in the game. It was Senior Night, his fellow students piled in to watch the game, with cutout signs of Jason’s face on them, in their hands ready to wave if he got on court.

We won’t spoil the ending, just watch the short video. If you don’t cry, you’re not human.
