Sports: You gotta hand it to Kevin Laue: He can sure play basketball

  • The one-handed Laue now has a Division I scholarship. The 6-foot-10 Laue, who’s begging to have a comeback story made about him for HBO or possibly ESPN, will be playing for Manhattan College next fall. He played at the tough Fork Union Military Academy in Virginia and did well against a bunch of top prospects. Laue, who lost his arm below his elbow during birth, realizes he may have been a tough sell at any school. “It’s a business,” he said. “Their jobs are all on the line. It’s much safer to take a two-handed guy my size that got beat by me.” source
