BYUTV’s big stories series connected with East Carolina University alum Lex Gillette, who is blind and a Paralympian and world-class jumper. Gillette graduated from ECU in 2007 with a bachelor’s degree in recreation and park management.

The release of the inspirational video feature coincided with BYU traveling to Greenville to play football at ECU.

Gillette is a six-time Paralympian, excelling especially in the long jump during international competitions.
