BEND, Ore. - Santa is coming a little late for twelve inspirational high school football players this year. Trusted Sports and Daniel ‘Rudy’ Ruettiger announced today the top 12 finalists of the second annual High School Football Rudy Awards. Chosen from over 250 nominees, these 12 young men have inspired their teammates, coaches, and communities. Kamron Clark of Canton, South Dakota has been battling kidney disease since the age of four and is one of the 12 nominations nominated by his coach, Rich Lundstrom. He plays on all of the scout teams and gives it his all. More than that, he is an inspiration for overcoming everything he has gone through in his life, and still suiting up to play the sport he loves. It is a lesson to anyone who thinks they've got it rough.” By the age of five Clark’s kidneys had completely shut down and he was placed on dialysis. He received his first transplant at seven, and a second when he was sixteen. No matter how many health problems he faces, Clark refuses to give up the sport he loves. The final four scholarship recipients will be named on January 18, 2011. The winner will receive a $10,000 academic scholarship to a college of his choice. Two runners-up and a fan favorite determined by online voting will each receive a $5,000 scholarship. America can vote for their favorite nominee online through January 17th at www.HighSchoolRudyAwards.com.
