Video: Wheelchair won't stop Moose Lake's Danny Lilya
Minnesota place holder serves as inspiration.
Danny Lilya holds all the extra points and field goal attempts for
Moose Lake/Willow River (Minn.) - and he does it all in a wheelchair.
Lilya was born with a broken back, caused by a spinal birth defect -
according to a wonderfully written story by David McCoy of CBS Minnesota.
But the inspirational sophomore knows no limits.
"A wheelchair doesn't define you," Lilya told CBS Minnesota. "If you want to do something but you're disabled, if you have the right mindset you can still go out there and do it."
Lilya is part of a Rebels team that has won 11 section titles in the last 17 years. Rest assured - he's a Rebel with a powerful cause.
