Leah Still was the surprise star of Temple's spring football game.

Still, the 4-year-old daughter of Cincinnati Bengals defensive lineman Devon Still who was recently pronounced cancer-free, was invited by the Owls to be a special guest at their spring game Saturday. She tossed the coin before the game, and also had a play run for her. Naturally, she took it to the house.

Still, who was diagnosed with Stage IV neuroblastoma last fall, became a nationally-inspiring story as she underwent surgery and other forms of treatment. The Bengals kept Devon Still on their practice squad so that his family could benefit from the NFL's health insurance. Leah's cancer is now in remission.

Great job, Temple.
