Cam Collins competed in basketball, baseball, and track in high school, but his goal was to play D1 basketball. He received no offers so he enrolled at H-S where he played on the basketball team as a freshman. After his first year he emailed the UVA track coaches and expressed his desire to join the track team. After meeting with the coaches, he was offered an opportunity to join the UVA track team as a walk-on. He is now competing with the track team in the decathalon. It is difficult to not root for anyone who is living a dream.
There is an interesting article by Jeff White on the UVA site.
