Sports Humanitarian Awards names nominees

Tyler Trent and Lina Khalifeh will be honored with the Stuart Scott ENSPIRE Award at the 2019 Sports Humanitarian Awards on July 9 in Los Angeles.

Ciara will host the event, with a musical performance by Andy Grammer. The event takes place the night before the ESPYS, honoring athletes, teams and sports industry professionals who use the power of sport to make a difference throughout the world.

Trent, who died on Jan. 1 from a rare form of bone cancer, inspired countless sports fans with his gratitude and grace. The Purdue student was a fixture at the school's football games, even while fighting his cancer.
