Twelve years ago today, our lives changed. To remember those who were lost and those who protected on 9/11, Big Ten athletes – both current and former – took to social media to express their sorrow and appreciation. See some of the tweets in this post.
Prayers goes out to all those who lost love ones on 9/11. Today will never be forgotten. #USA
