Garry Gilliam
Very nice story about Garry Gilliam the tight-end-turned-tackle who caught the fake field goal touchdown pass against Green Bay.
When Gilliam roared at the screaming fans in the south end zone after the greatest play of his remarkable life this past weekend, an entire community in Pennsylvania rocked like it was CenturyLink Field East.
“I knew he was lined up on the left side on their field-goal team, and I could see through the screen he was going out for a pass,” said Dennis Moore, Gilliam’s tight ends coach, javelin coach, anatomy and physiology teacher and still great friend from The Milton Hershey School in Hershey, Pennsylvania.
“I jumped off the couch. It was really fulfilling to see.”
Jared Ross at The Milton Hershey School loved Gilliam’s play, too.
Jared is a ninth grader at the cost-free, private residential school for underprivileged children. That’s where Gilliam literally lived and learned from when he was 7 years old through his high school graduation.
