This is a tale of five very special people -- pulled together by one common thread... blood cancer.    The Sager family, having dealt with this diagnosis with their own Dad, Hall of Fame Sportscaster #CraigSager, knows all to well the battle, the fight and the perseverance it takes to #beatbloodcancer... that is why we have set up a very special award and program for those who battle and thrive through the process. 

**Meet our  SagerStrong Hometown Heroes!**

Our inaugural award winner — Peyton White, a Woodstock High School student– was diagnosed in 2019 with Chronic Myeloid Leukemia... and selected and honored as our first recipient --at the first SagerStrong Stadium Fun Run at the Atlanta Braves’ SunTrust Park on August 25, 2019. Peyton was invited out to the game with her family, was recognized at the run and the game as the Award winner, and participated in the run with us.
