There is nothing like kids with big hearts to remind us there is still good in the world.

On Saturday, North Gwinnett High School held a middle school basketball tournament in the middle of a very snowy morning.

Because of the weather, Hull Middle School only had one cheerleader make it to the game -- but she still wanted to cheer on her team.

As she performed her routine alone on the sidelines, she got a little help.

The Coleman Middle School Cats cheer squad was sitting nearby on the bleachers in between their own games and decided to pitch in their support. For the entire game, they cheered with her.

"The level of sportsmanship displayed was enormous but more importantly, the level of kindness and genuine support these student provided will never be forgotten and should be shared and celebrated," Antoinette Jones wrote to WSB-TV.
