Adonis Lattimore, a high school student from Virginia, recently made it known his disability is no obstacle to success after he became the state wrestling champion. Lattimore, who was born without a right leg and only has partial function in his left leg, also won the state championship in Class 6 with his victory in the wrestling final on Saturday.
Landstown high school senior won the title after defeating Lake Braddock student Korlan Tran 5-1,
“I have been dreaming of this since I knew what it was, and to finally have it happen is just … I don’t know how to explain it,” Lattimore said.
“Really if you work hard, you can do anything — even win a state championship without legs.”
