Jerry was in tears when he and Wilbur found each other. The two embraced and Jerry tucked his head into Wilbur’s neck. Next year, Jerry Staats will follow in his family’s footsteps and play for Syracuse University next season. “I told you we’d get you to Syracuse,” Wilbur said. “I knew you’d get there.” As the two hugged and Staats cried into Wilbur, chaos ensued in the background among the rest of Staats’ teammates. They ran up and down the field jumping and screaming. Some jumped over the fence into the stands. [/QUOTE]
