He runs cross country and he’s a wrestler, but on that race day, the athlete in him took a back seat to the genuine human being that he is.
16-year-old Concord High School cross-country runner Ettien left a race to help a distressed runner on an opposing team.It happened during a race last week at Brandywine Creek State Park. He says he went into it with a big goal. "I felt good. I thought I was going to PR it, to be honest. Like, personal record."
"I picked her up, put her on my shoulders and I started walking her and it was up this hill and I had just run this race, a very hard course. So, my legs were killing me," Ettien explained. "I sit her down and she starts throwing up again." "I teared up a little bit," proud mom Sarah Vetri said. "Those parents were like, ‘You should be proud.’"
