Shane Parsons has had both of his legs amputated above the knee, but he's a faster skater than I am.
You read that correctly.
As I glide around the ice on my hockey skates while the Ohio Warriors sled hockey team warms up doing some sledding drills, I'm struck by how nimbly Shane moves in his sled. He weaves inside and outside of pylons. He turns his hips and stops on a dime. He uses his amazing upper body strength to generate straight line speed.
We at the Cannon were contacted about interviewing Shane to talk about his experience with sled hockey.
