How does one go from a late start in wrestling to becoming an All-American athlete? La'ron Parks joins us to share his remarkable journey from Euclid, Ohio, to the national wrestling stage. Despite starting his wrestling career in his sophomore year of high school, La'rons natural athletic prowess propelled him to early success.
