Sick Wis. teen plays first, only football game
Darin 'Doogie' Weiks is a high school football celebrity in central Wisconsin _ thanks to playing one game that was his first and also his last.
'I never thought it would happen,' the Athens High School senior said Friday. 'This is very special and the best thing in my life. I wanted to play football pretty bad.'
Weiks, 17, has a rare, genetic liver disease that prevented him from playing the sport _ until Thursday night's 33-19 win over Abbotsford.
A friend on the team suggested that Weiks, who plays on the Bluejays' basketball and baseball teams, be the kicker for the last game. The coaches and his parents agreed, and after just three days of practice, Weiks pulled on No. 5 for the season finale.
