The high school senior said at that moment he was not thinking about the score, he just wanted to show compassion.
"When you're playing the game, you're playing to win, and the other team is the enemy. But afterward, you still have respect for the other opponent," Smith said. "Football brings people together in so many different ways, and that was just one example of it that night."
