So remember when all of you are out there competing, you are already winners. Be brave, do the best you possibly can and have fun!" Vincent signed autographs all weekend and handed out awards to the athletes.

Vincent Martella stars as Greg, Chris' best friend and fellow outcast at Corleone Junior High, in UPN’s award winning comedy Everybody Hates Chris. This 13 year old Florida resident is currently on hiatus from filming in Los Angeles.
