Maize’s Conrad Litton has been through so much in his 16-plus years of his life.
In 2023, he was diagnosed with cancer and had to go through six rounds of chemotherapy, which caused him to develop drop foot and weak joints.
“After my remission I was allowed to play football again and I now play offensive right tackle for Maize and I still feel these pains quite often but they are totally normal,” Litton said. “My weak joints later showed on the football field and in the weight room as my knees were hurting all the time. I was attempting a squat max In the summer of 2024 and my left knee gave out and caused my leg to buckle in. Thankfully I didn’t tear anything I only strained my patella tendon.”
