When I first saw a picture of Dustin Carter this morning, there was no way I thought this kid was a wrestler.

I mean, how could a teenager, who had all of his limbs amputated when he was five years old due to a rare, life threatening blood disorder, compete against other kid. Then I saw his record.

At 41-3 and a trip to the state championships, I had to see how Carter could do this for myself.

Below is a video of Carter wrestling for his Hillsboro, Ohio high school team. Watching someone be able to tackle and overcome something like Carter did is truly inspiring. He really is a role model that if you set your mind to something, you can do it.
