WATCH: Blind high school senior scores first touchdown

Pottstown, Pa. (WTXF) - It was an amazing moment for a local high school senior who has been blind since he was 10 years old. He scored his first touchdown during the Pottstown High School Homecoming Game vs Pottsgrove High School.

According to PA Prep Live.com, Pottstown High School senior Marvin Pearson started to lose his vision in second grade and became completely blind by the age of 10.

The Trojans lost to Pottsgrove 48-8 but it's a night Marvin will never forget.

"It's an exhilarating feeling being able to run, that's what I love to do," Pearson told PA Prep Live.com. "As disappointing as this loss was, I was happy to get a chance to prove that I do have skills despite the fact that I can't see."
