Oklahoma Sooners gymnast Maggie Nichols was one of a number of former gymnasts presented with the Arthur Ashe Courage Award at the 2018 ESPYS as survivors of Larry Nassar’s sexual abuse, a scandal that transpired over the course of 30 years. Other recipients of the award include four-time Olympic gold medalist Simone Biles and three-time Olympic gold medalist Aly Raisman.
“To all the survivors out there, don't let anyone rewrite your story. Your truth does matter. You matter. And you are not alone.”
Tonight, Aly Raisman and her sister survivors brought the #ESPYS audience to their feet.
