Illinois HS athlete suffers horrific injury while warming up for triple jump

An Illinois high school track athlete suffered an unimaginable injury while warming up for the triple jump at a meet last month.

Dylan Westcott, of Rock Falls High School, broke his neck in a freak accident that left him paralyzed from the chest down. The 18-year-old has been rehabbing at the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab and has been able to sit in a wheelchair since about a week after the March 15 catastrophe.
