Lets go Zay!

14-year-old Zay, a member of the BPS Modified Football team with down syndrome, scored a touchdown during the season opener!!
Zay’s mom Sylvia says he only played for a year when he was around 6 or 7. After watching the first preseason Buffalo Bills game, he got inspired to play again! She found the right fit for him right here at BPS! His teammates helped him to this moment.
A great start to the season 🏈 Watch Video!
