"There hasn’t been a dry eye since I found out," said South View coach Rodney Brewington, who learned the news Sunday. “It was a shock to everyone. I took it hard...He’s part of us. He was with our team less than 365 days ago. He’s been to several of our games this year, and he was on our sideline Friday night cheering us on."
