U-M captains deliver game ball to Chad Carr

On Saturday night, the Michigan football team dedicated its game at Indiana to Chad Carr, the Saline five-year-old who is battling a brain tumor.

The Wolverines wrote Carr's slogan #ChadTough on the back of their helmets and coach Jim Harbaugh said they were inspired by him as they pulled out the 48-41 double overtime victory.

Today, captains Joe Kerridge and Joe Bolden visited the Carr house and presented Chad with the game ball from the win.

Carr, whose family announced he is entering hospice care after fighting the Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma tumor since September 2014, has many ties to the U-M program.
