High school wrestler sacrifices undefeated record to let opponent with special needs win
Posted Jan 28, 2016
Deven Schuko is a senior at Norton High School, who is a wrestler with a 27-0 record, and earned his 100th career win earlier this year. But all of that meant nothing to Schuko when he faced Andy Howland. Howland, who wrestles for Dighton-Rehoboth Regional High School, has Down Syndrome. Schuko felt the need to reward Howland for his effort, and Howland took him down.
