That's pretty amazing 12th. My nextdoor neighbor was at UMD during Lenny's time and had the pleasure of seeing him play frequently. He was just telling me that it was really an unbelievable sight to see. He told me that Bias looked like a man amongst boys, like LeBron before he went pro excpet instead of high school kids he was dominating the ACC. It really is one of the saddest events in sports and I just wish it was more widely talked about because of the impact it could have.

Every high school and college athelete needs to know this story, and I hate to use story because I feel like is disconnects the whole thing from reality, but I can't think of anything else.
