Caron Butler of the Washington Wizards honors students who exemplify his personal principles: determination, dedication, and discipline -- the 3Ds to success. His January winners included O'Connell senior Morgan DiSanto-Ranney, whose entry portrayed her determination to turn a terrible event in her life into something that would make her stronger.
On January 20, 2010, Morgan and her family were invited to attend the Wizards vs. Dallas basketball game at Verizon Center in Washington. During the halftime activities, Morgan was honored, and a video about her was broadcast on the jumbo screens overhead. CLICK HERE to view the video.
Congratulations, Morgan!
