a few items for you wait for Matt Walsh’s videos to show up on YouTube…
+ a short piece on a New York High School senior, Jerry Ntumba, whose faith in God has helped him return from a 2005 car accident to compete in the Pentathlon. (written by Alanna Stage for the Democrat & Chronicle)
+ The Memphis Tigers baseball team is teaming up with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes to put on a baseball camp for 8-12 year olds in June. Kids who attend “will receive proper physical baseball skill development that includes instruction in fielding positions, mental and emotional game training, relational and teammate tips and spiritual development.” (CBS College Sports)
+ Binghamton University freshman Cazal Arnett just broke the school’s record time in the 200 and 400 meter race. A member of BU’s InterVarsity Christian Fellowship Program, Cazal was first introduced to track in high school when the track coach happened to see him run a mandatory fitness test. (Michael Sharp, Press & Sun Bulletin)
+ I just found Jamie Whitmore’s blog today, and it makes for inspiring reading. Jamie is an extreme athlete with pretty impressive credentials. Six weeks ago she underwent surgery to remove a large, cancerous tumor from her hip. Today, she is overcoming the challenges associated with her rehab, and trusting in God to help her get through. She details much of it in this post from a few days ago. Good stuff.
