Lincolnway’s Devin Lockett is locked in and makes contact at the USA Wheelchair Softball World Series Thursday.
For Jeff, who was active in sports at Downers Grove North and the College of DuPage, his days of athletics seemed over and the disability has forced him to wear an ankle foot orthotic brace.Lemont’s Jeff Yackley delivers a pitch Thursday in the opening round of the USA Wheelchair Softball World Series.
“No bitterness. The Lord has a strange way of changing plans and details, and you have to go along with stuff.” Wallace took one look at Yackley’s brace and decided he was a perfect candidate for wheelchair sports.“I wish I would have discovered these adaptive sports when I was in my 20s,” Yackley said. “Who knows what I could have done? But I’ve certainly been blessed. I have been able to play some basketball and what a humbling sport that is. These players are much better than I am. They are faster and better. It’s passed me up a little bit.
The Hawks, who finished third in the World Series in 2021, opened the 17-team, double-elimination tournament with a 15-0 win over the West Michigan Rollin Whitecaps and a 13-2 triumph over the Deep South Hurricanes.Other members of Wallace’s roster are Jake Williams, Devin Lockett, Will Smith, Paul Smith, Keith Cooper, Jimmy Jackson, Billy Smith, Dan Douglas, J.R.
