The Leander Lazers racked up quite the medal count at Texas’ Special Olympics Summer Games earlier this month. The six athletes accounted for seven different Top 3 finishes in track and field events.

Adding on to this success, one Lazer – Joey Brick – won the 2024 Most Inspirational Athlete Award. Brick was credited for fostering an inclusive, accepting environment through his warm, welcoming personality. 

Way to go, Lazers!
