Center, which treats children with cancer. The race was “The sense of family goes way beyond just the started by John and Nicky Webb, owners of the speed- football team,” said Oliva. “All the other teams, way. John Webb lost his dad to cancer and knew he the band, the principals, the teachers all make it wanted to make a difference in children’s lives. Oliva feel like one big family.” says the race is one of his favorites. As Oliva works a full-time job, he says racing and “It’s the biggest race for me because I get to see all helping kids battle cancer is at the center of everythe kids that have or have had cancer,” said Oliva. “I just thing he does for the near future. love seeing them when they come up to me, and their faces light up when they realize that I had cancer, and “Yeah, it would be great to do this as a career,” they see the things that I’m doing now.” said Oliva. “But that takes a lot of money, and so I’m ok with how we’re doing it now. The important thing Oliva says a lot of his determination and fight come is that I get to help spread awareness and help raise from his years as a Moore High Lion. While at MHS, he money for these kids. And if you can change one played on the football team and still remembers the en- kid’s life, maybe give that kid a chance to live and go live his dream, that’s worth all the work.” tire high school experience as a great one.
