VSDB is proud of two of its alumni from the Blind Department. Sean Walker and Christian King are key players on the Team USA International Goalball team. They were recently overseas participating with the USA team in the World Championship games. Christian was recognized as the MVP in the game on Dec 13 against Iran and Sean was recognized as the MVP in the game on Dec 14 against Columbia. Team USA finished 5th in Group D.
VSDB is proud of these young men! Go VSDB Alumni!
