Ryan Cremeens dreams of one day playing tight end for the Kentucky Wildcats.
Tonight, the 9-year-old from Richmond, Kentucky, will take a step toward feeling what it could be like to play for the Cats inside Commonwealth Stadium.
Well, maybe a few steps, because Cremeens will be leading his beloved Wildcats onto the field before Kentucky's spring game.
It's a dream come true for Cremeens, who last summer was diagnosed with rhabdomyosarcoma, a soft-tissue muscle tumor that had grown inside his sinus cavity. After nearly a year of fighting this form of cancer, Cremeens underwent his final session of chemotherapy on March 30 and was discharged the very next day.
