When my oldest son was a senior in high school he was on the Science Olympiad team. His team went to the national competition. He won the gold medal for the only event that was an individual event. It was truly a magical moment when they called out his high school's name as the winner of the gold. Then it hit me that the winner was him. I gathered myself up and rushed to get his picture as he was given the award.
My youngest son also had an equally magical senior year in sports. But those magical moments were realized over the course of time, the competition season. However, winning his last tennis match in the regular season to remain unbeaten for the season was an unbelievable moment. The match was one of the best I've seen. There would have been no shame in losing.
