Star lineman turned heartbreak into purpose after losing his home and friend.
LOYOLA's Max Meier (97) rushes against Gardena Serra at SoFi Stadium. "Warming up under all those seats is just ridiculous,"
(Craig Weston For The Times)
Imagine losing your home and belongings to a wildfire, then losing your best friend when he was killed by a suspected driver under the influence, all happening within months of each other.
Max Meier, a star defensive tackle for Loyola High who has committed to Stanford, dealt with that kind of awful adversity this year, losing his family home in the Palisades fire, then losing classmate Braun Levi in May when he was hit by a car while walking on a Manhattan Beach street.
To hear Meier's response and wisdom while dealing with two tragedies offers hope for the future.
