Two Sun Devils to Earn Tempe Sports Authority Foundation Courage Awards

TEMPE, Ariz. – The Tempe Sports Authority Foundation has announced the recipients of its 24th Annual Courage Awards, including two Sun Devils in head men's tennis coach Matt Hill and football student-athlete Tim White. The Arizona Cardinals' Patrick Peterson is the third honoree for this year.

The Courage Awards celebrate those who have shown courage and heroism in circumstances of adversity.

Two words can be used to describe the Sun Devils' pair of honorees for this year: battle-tested and victorious.

Hill fought and defeated osteosarcoma, a common type of bone cancer, when he was just 19 years old, 16 years ago.
