Outstanding video. As a proud alum of Illinois, I remember UW-Whitewater well as a competitive team even in the early '80s. You didn't yet have the basketball pedigree that you do now, but always a great institution.

As director of nAblement and President of the Board of the National Spinal Cord Injury Association, I have great respect for students with disabilities who move forward and drive their success.

I have linked you to the nAblement site as we do source candidates for technology roles in both the Chicago and Milwaukee markets. I have specifically requested grads from Whitewater as I know they have the confidence and determination to succeed in the IT industry.

Sincerely,

Pat Maher

I had the pleasure of having a couple of the members and the coach visit my school last year, and I think it's amazing what this team has gone through.

As a television producer, I am extremely impressed with this video of one of the most inspirational teams I've ever met.
As the aunt of team member Jay Baker, I am beaming with pride!
These guys rule!!!

Compelling video about a great team.

Matt,
It is my opinion that you, your coach and entire team are awesome! I am praying for your continued success. keep up the good work. Love you always.

It's great to see our sport portrayed for what it is...a very fast, very exciting sport played by some of the best athletes in the world. We struggle to find opportunities to expose our sport to people that are either not disabled themselves, or do not know someone with a disability, and thats a shame. I've been involved in the sport for about 12 years, and I believe that every single person that I've been able to drag to a game or to a practice has fallen in love with wheelchair basketball. Hopefully this story helps us to build more awareness and expose people to the fastest court sport on wheels! Never mind the fact that many of the athletes that play wheelchair basketball are among the most resilient people in the world in terms of the things they overcome on a daily basis.

I'd be happy to answer any questions you have about our program or about the sport, simply click on the link to the right!

As Jay Bakers father, I have seen the accomplishments these young men and my son have made. They didn't give up which is why I am so proud of not only my son but every man on the warhawks team. They and Coach Tracy have saved his life. I am so very thankful of what, people such as Katy Sai, have done to raise the awareness of people for wheel chair athletics that I just cannot say thankyou enough.
I am a very proud father.
