Zaevion Dobson to be Honored with the Arthur Ashe Courage Award at The 2016 ESPYS on ABC - ESPN MediaZone

 NOTE: This is the official ESPN Press Release and link. (RM) Zaevion Dobson to be Honored with the Arthur Ashe Courage Award at The 2016 ESPYS on ABC - ESPN MediaZone: In December 2015, Zaevion Dobson, a 15-year-old high school football star from Knoxville, Tennessee, was forced to make a split-second decision—run to safety or sacrifice himself to protect those around him. Instead of running, Dobson used his body to protect two girls from a barrage of bullets, ultimately giving his life to save theirs. To honor his incredible act of bravery, ESPN today announced that Dobson will be posthumously honored with the Arthur Ashe Courage Award at The 2016 ESPYS Presented by Capital One.
