‘One-Armed Wonder’ Amazes Others

So who comes away the most dumbfounded after an encounter with Josh Konkler? Is it the baseball coach who waves his outfielders in close, assuming the batter who swings with just his left arm can’t go deep, and then watches him smack one over the center fielder’s head for a double? Is it the defensive back, matched up across from a receiver with no right hand, who gives up on a long pass he just knows is uncatchable – only to see it go for a touchdown? Is it the basketball opponent who knows the player he’s guarding can only go to his left, yet still falls for even the suggestion of a crossover dribble that doesn’t exist and gets beat anyway? Or is it the stranger who discovers in the course of conversation that Josh Konkler is not just a three-sport pony?/ John Blanchette , SR. More here. (SR photo: Christopher Anderson)
