I feel like this project has really helped me show other people that (Davis) is such an amazing role model, and especially during a time when the world isn't always such a great place. But people like Ernie Davis — he is such a great role model to look up to, especially with younger kids, and I feel like that's really important." "It became more than just winning a scholarship for me. Be Like Ernie took on a life of its own. Throughout the process, I was able to touch the lives and spread the word of Ernie to thousands of elementary school children in our area." |
