A player from each team took a knee. It was done quietly. No calling attention. This is a country based upon freedom. Taking a knee during the National Anthem has nothing to do with those serving in our military. It recognizes in a solemn way that the promises of our Declaration of Independence and Constitution are still in pursuit and not achieved. I know who took the knee for Lehigh but will not name him because of fear of people who would try to “do something”. It takes guts to go against the grain.
