How a 7-year-old boy made a lasting impact on UNC freshman Aaron Sabato
Posted Jun 9, 2019
The group of 20 or so children and their families stood in left field, waiting anxiously. They were patients at UNC hospitals. Among the children on this October 2018 day was a 7-year-old. UNC's Aaron Sabato noticed the small boy standing with his family away from the group. Sabato walked up to the boy and introduced himself. The boy’s name was Brady Niles.
