Glassboro HS Counselor Grants Promise, Gives Corey Clement Her BMW
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Glassboro, New Jersey native Corey Clement is living his dream.
The 23-year-old undrafted running back out of Wisconsin is making a name for himself with the Eagles, as a key contributor on the NFL's best team.
Clement has proven everyone wrong on his road to NFL success and one of his motivators was his Glassboro High School guidance counselor, Mary Beth Ragozzino. Ragozzino promised Clement her BMW if he reached the NFL.
And he did, so she did.
I won't be covering the Eagles and I'm not even in Philly yet, but just heard a cool story about Eagles RB Corey Clement. When he was at Glassboro HS (in NJ), his guidance counselor told him that if he ever made the NFL, she'd give him her BMW. So she did. (CC @EliotShorrParks) pic.twitter.com/cRjuqDyGaW
