Kyle Maynard Speech At Jon Davis Wrestling Center Banquet

Kyle was born with a condition known as congenital amputation that has left him with arms that end at the elbows and legs that end near his knees. Kyle’s story begins as a 12 year old that wanted to wrestle and a coach that gave him an opportunity to try. After losing every single match his first year and most his second, Kyle, with his will and a coach with a heart of gold became a very successful varsity wrestler on one of the best teams in the Southeast. In his 7th and final season of wrestling, Kyle made the varsity line up for the first time and finished the season with 36 wins and 18 losses. Here is Kyle telling his story at the opening of the John Davis Wrestling Center in Edwardsville Illinois.
