Mapping progress

Posted Oct 26, 2007

Durell Mapp packed his bags, ready to head off to Fork Union Military Academy. He had hoped to spend his first year out of high school somewhere else -- on a Division I football team, preferably -- but he saw his upcoming year at Fork Union as an opportunity. No coaches in Division I wanted him on their football team? He would show them. Then the phone rang, and Mapp's life changed. (Durham Herald-Sun)
