Highland Park Athletic Director, Johnny Ringo, accepted the Community Impact Award on behalf of his athletic program in recognition of their commitment to building dedicated, hard-working young men and women and by focusing on winning with integrity in ways that promote self-confidence and pride.

Our emcee for the evening, John Rhadigan, from Fox Sports Southwest, led a lively conversation with former Texas Ranger Michael Young.
 


Young spoke about his own youth sports experiences, his major league playing time and now his role as sports dad, and just how different they have all been – except the basics!

Thank you to everyone who supported this fundraiser benefitting PCA-North Texas!

Tawanna Flowers, who received PCA's Double-Goal Coach® award this year, was honored at the event. She was also honored at PCA's National Youth Sports Awards & Benefit back in April.
