Bad breaks lead to big things for Pickerington Central's Sterling Manley

Posted Nov 29, 2016
Sterling Manley had worked hard to get back on the court from a broken right tibia just five months earlier. This time, he was felled by a compound fracture of the left tibia. Amazingly, almost exactly nine months after that horrifying night, Manley signed a national letter of intent to play for five-time NCAA champion North Carolina. The timeline of Manley’s meteoric ascent was just as incredible. (Columbus Dispatch)
