Chuck needed to adjust his start date at Humphrey in 2016 because he was in competition at the Paralympic games in Rio. The team took silver that year, losing 59-58 in the final round to Australia in double overtime. The end of that game is honestly one of the most exciting moments ever in team competition -- and Chuck was right in the middle of it. You can watch the end of that game here.

Now's he's back competing in the Tokyo games. Wheelchair rugby competition will begin on August 24 and runs through September 5th.  Click here to learn the 10 things to know about wheelchair rugby.

UPDATE: Team USA takes silver! Congratulations to Chuck and the entire team. We are proud of you!
