Was at that game, remember it well. I actually left shortly before the decision was made to abandon, as I had no stomach to continue watching what was unfolding on the field.
Shamefully, the name Bender doesn't ring a bell, perhaps memory of the occasion overtakes other facts.
Thanks for letting us know that the young man is still in the game that almost cost his life, at whatever level.
