IKNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- (WVLT) The senior was baptized last night at Sevier Heights Baptist Church along with teammate daniel lincoln as well as approximatley 75 other believers.

We spoke with Jonathan's mother, Janet, on the phone this afternoon and she was thrilled as Jonathan surprised her with the news yesterday. The church says Jonathan began attending regularly about a month and a half ago and made the decision to be saved shortly thereafter.
