NFL's Tre Boston takes time out for Southwest Florida

Posted Feb 7, 2015
When Tre Boston had success at UNC, then was drafted by the Carolina Panthers in 2014, then had a rookie season in which he played well at safety during a playoff run, he still didn't forget about Southwest Florida. He didn't forget about his family, or North Fort Myers, or his coach, Barry Goettemoeller, or the pediatric division, or the hundreds of fans that still followed him throughout his career.
