Players Support Gay Coach With #BETRUE Shirts

From: Wicked Gay Blog
"The Saunders High School boys basketball team played their first game of the season Sunday, and it was special.

The players entered the gym and warmed up wearing Nike #BeTrue shirts in solidarity with and support of their head coach, Anthony Nicodemo, who came out publicly as gay earlier this year. The #BeTrue line is Nike's LGBT brand that has helped fund the work of the LGBT Sports Coalition. It was a pretty powerful statement by the players, largely straight inner-city youth, who came up with the idea themselves." Full story here via OutSports!
