Hats Off to Arizona’s Queen Creek High football team for its anti-bullying effort.
Players including the star quarterback have rallied behind Chy Johnson, a 16-year-old special needs student who was tormented by kids at school, reports 3TV News and azfamily.com.
The players now eat with her at lunch and watch her back.
Johnson’s daily life was far different before. She came home crying every day and the bullies “threw trash at me,” she said in the interview.

They’re being filed by an attorney who has a history of taking action in these types of cases.
LOUISVILLE, Ky. —Four new lawsuits were announced Tuesday against Jefferson County Public Schools.
All of them cited complaints of bullying within the school system.
Attorney Teddy Gordon has filed 11 lawsuits against the school district over the past year.
Two of those have been filed just in the past few days.
Some name students as defendants, others allege wrongdoings of teachers and administrators. But all of them are based on what parents called a lack of intervention by JCPS.
“Insults, bullying, torment, harassment — just an atmosphere of violence,” said Gordon.
The most public of the cases involved a second-grade boy at Frayser Elementary School. The lawsuit stated two fifth-graders “assaulted (the victim) in the bathroom at the school leaving him to die by hanging him on the hook in the bathroom stall.”
That lawsuit named a teacher, the school’s principal and the two fifth-graders as defendants.
JCPS has said that all staff members followed protocol.
