It was February 2013 when Trevor Knight, Ty Darlington and Jed Barnett first met a brave, little girl named McKenzie Horton. They met her at OU's Children's Hospital. She was there receiving chemotherapy.
It was a routine visit that Oklahoma Sooners players make all the time, although rarely do these visits seem routine once the players begin to talk to the hospital's many young patients who still somehow manage to smile and beam at their visitors.
The football players were particularly drawn to McKenzie and her family.
