Harrison Hightower has battled through Legg Calve Perthese disease to become a state champion and Ohio University wrestler.
Harrison Hightower's story has a strange resemblance to that of Forrest Gump. Like Gump, Hightower was diagnosed with a physical disease at an early age that dramatically affected the use of his legs, forcing him to wear braces.

The head of his hipbone was deteriorated and stopped growing so doctors gave him leg braces. "They were similar to the ones in Forrest Gump," Hightower said. The braces forced his legs to bend outwards and he had to play sports in them, causing some interesting reactions from others. "It …
