Injured in a car accident on the night of his high school graduation, Eric found independence and freedom when he was introduced to wheelchair rugby 5 weeks after his accident. He credits the sport for rebuilding his confidence and independence, for pulling him out of
depression and realizing his full potential. Wheelchair rugby has also led him to meet his wife, Megan, with whom he shares 2 beautiful kids: Rory (4) and Nolan (1).
