Move For Maddie 2023 #MFM2023
Maddie Potts was a healthy, young, female athlete, taken acutely from this world at the age of 17. Maddie exemplified all attributes that a student athlete should possess. She always led by example, and dedicated her free time to helping her teammates, fellow art students and all others around her to be the very best they could be. Her year round work ethic as a 3 sport athlete, honor student and member of VAASA (Varsity Athletes Above Substance Abuse) is unsurpassed by any her age. To quote her athletic director, “She just had a way with the kids on her team. They idolized her. They looked at her like she was a superhero – like she was Wonder Woman. Any time we went into any game, no matter who the other team had, our girls would be like ‘Well, we have Maddie Potts.’”
Please join us by posting a video juggling a soccer ball for Maddie during the month of June to honor her legacy AND raise Brain Aneurysm Awareness!
