FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) TCU quarterback Trevone Boykin gets plenty of praise for his standout play. He is winning new fans with something he did before kickoff.
Moments before No. 3 TCU played at Iowa State on Saturday, Boykin greeted a disabled 7-year-old Cyclones fan watching from a wheelchair.
Abby Faber was chosen to be a ''Kid Captain'' for the game from Blank Children's Hospital in Des Moines, Iowa, where she has physical therapy.
"She usually uses a walker,'' her mother, Jenny Faber, told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram (http://bit.ly/1ZUpTQI) from her home in Ankeny, near Des Moines.
