Hero Wrestler Anthony Robles Gets Honored! For Anthony Robles, it was the perfect ending to the perfect season. The Arizona State wrestler born with one leg ended his undefeated season with the crown on Saturday, defeating the defending champ Matt McDonough of Iowa, 7-1. Robles, who took up wrestling during his freshman year of high school, told USA Today that being born without a leg actually gave him an advantage over his opponent. Because he uses crutches, he said he's got a much stronger grip, which can help him on takedowns and turns. "I have such a strong grip," he told the newspaper. A kid born with one leg and no interest in wearing a prosthetic just to fit in? You just don't hear about that kind of confidence and courage every day. He was determined to wrestle, even if it meant getting beat, match after match his freshman year in high school. Even if it meant having people laugh and gawk at his disability. But eventually he started winning. And he didn't stop, landing him at last week's ESPY awards, where he won both the Best Male Athlete With a Disability Award and the Jimmy V Award for Perseverance. People might look at Robles and feel awe. But maybe they feel like they can't relate to his story. But they can. The other day, I found out a friend of mine is going through a divorce and not by choice. The words "shame," "failure" and "embarrassment" kept coming up. It has become the dark secret from which to hide. I felt the despair and defeat in the conversation <b>...</b>
