Besler goes back to school

Matt Besler headed back to school on Friday to speak to the students of Platte City Middle School. Besler, commonly referred to as the hometown hero on Sporting Kansas City's roster, was able to shed some light on the triumphs and trials of being a professional athlete. Besler has always made community involvement a high priority on his agenda and Friday's visit allowed Besler the opportunity to interact with some of Kansas City's youth.

After the Q&A, students from Platte City were excited to take photos with Besler. Below are a few images from the visit that were posted on social media by the middle schoolers.
