This is a story about Martel Van Zant. He is a football player for Oklahoma State University who happens to be deaf. It was nominated for a 2007 Lone Star Emmy in the Best Sports Story category. It originally aired on FSN Southwest. The reporter is John Rhadigan. I was the editor.
Nice piece. Why is it not open captioned so others who are Deaf/Hard of Hearing could enjoy the piece as well????
