Ex-Cat Rondae Hollis-Jefferson's hometown names gym after him

Arizona’s 2015 All-Pac-12 basketball forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson returned home to Chester, Pennsylvania, last week and was surprised (and emotional) when the Chester Community Charter Schools district told him it was naming the high school’s gymnasium the “Rondae Hollis-Jefferson Gymnasium.” His two seasons at Arizona didn’t result in a Final Four, but his character, hustle, good nature and the way he represented Sean Miller’s program went beyond wins and losses. 

This is something I've only dreamed of!! I just want to inspire all races, ages, gender that no matter what steer through the blurred vision pic.twitter.com/4QOKsmBRw2
