University of Oregon quarterback Marcus Mariota, the 2014 Heisman Trophy winner, recently visited patients at Kravis Children’s Hospital at Mount Sinai, where he hosted a live show from the hospital’s television studio in The Child Life Zone and fielded live calls from patients watching in their rooms. The event was sponsored by The Companions in Courage Foundation, whose founder, NHL Hall of Famer Pat LaFontaine, also attended. Mr. Mariota conducted a special Skype session in the Lion’s Den, an interactive playroom, where he spoke with pediatric patients in other hospitals.
