Wake Forest Coach Donates Kidney To Player
February 9, 2011 from WFDD
In college athletics, coaches demand a lot of their players. So, for Wake Forest's baseball coach, it was an easy decision for him to give something back to one of his players in need: The coach donated one of his kidneys.
"TIBERII: Kevin was a highly regarded baseball prospect coming out of Georgia, projected as a future major leaguer who could've made almost a million dollars from his first contract, had he skipped college and turned pro. But he didn't - committing to Wake Forest. However, Jordan got sick during his senior year of high school and doctors diagnosed him with ANCA vasculitis, a rare disorder where a person's white blood cells attack healthy tissues."
