Shepard rallies for senior named to U.S. Men's Deaflympics volleyball team
Son of Richards High School staff member heading to Turkey this summer to compete
Shepard High School senior volleyball player Bryan Leyden -- the son of Richards High School teacher assistant Dawn Leyden -- has been selected for the U.S. Men's Deaflympics team.
The team will train in California following the school year. Then they'll travel overseas to Turkey to represent the United States.
Bryan could use some help. Players must pay their way to training camp in California and to the games overseas.
