Mo'ne Davis Offers the Best Response Ever to Student Who Called Her a "Slut"

Athlete called for baseball player Joey Casselberry to be reinstated because she said he deserved a second chance

Mo'ne Davis is officially one of the best kids walking around this planet.

After Bloomsburg University student Joey Casselberry was dismissed from his baseball team for writing an offensive tweet about the Little League World Series star, Davis didn't get angry or support the decision—she did the opposite. The 14-year-old wrote an email to the school asking for Casselberry's reinstatement!

"Everyone makes mistakes," Davis told Sports Center. "Everyone deserves a second chance. I know he didn't mean it in that type of way. I know people get tired of seeing me on TV. But sometimes you got to think about what you're doing before you do it."

She added, "It hurt on my part, but he hurt even more. If it was me, I would want to take that back. I know how hard he's worked. Why not give him a second chance?"

The junior first baseman was thrown off the team after tweeting, "Disney is making a movie about Mo'ne Davis? WHAT A JOKE. That slut got rocked by Nevada." It has since been deleted.

Before subsequently deleting his social media accounts after his tweet went viral, Casselberry tweeted an apology for his harsh words. "An example that one stupid tweet can ruin someone's life and I couldn't be more sorry about my actions last night. I please ask you to.

"Forgive me and truly understand that I am in no way shape or form a sexist and I am a huge fan of Mo'ne," he continued. "She was quite an inspiration."

But the university released a statement confirming Davis' request, and said it would stand behind its choice to remove Casselberry.

"Her request demonstrates the type of person she is, her level of maturity and the empathy that her family and coach teach her," the statement read, per ESPN. "Bloomsburg University stands firm on our decision; however, his consequences will be reviewed as is common in disciplinary actions like this."

From Philadelphia, Davis was the first girl to earn a win and pitch a shutout during the LLWS, which landed her a spot on the cover of Sports Illustrated. Disney Channel said last week that it is developing the biographical film, Throw Like Mo, about the young baseball starlet.
