Big Stories TV Redux: ECU and Colorado

Episode Description from the Publisher

Welcome back to another bi-weekly check-in as we prepare to join forces with BYUtv's Big Stories this fall. In the meantime, enjoy an update from a couple of their episodes from last fall. First, meet Lex Gillette — a Paralympic long jump champion who lost his sight at age eight and went on to become one of the most decorated blind athletes in the world. Today, he dedicates his life to helping others see possibilities they never thought were within reach. Then, meet Peggy Coppom — the 100-year-old University of Colorado superfan who spent decades cheering on the Buffs long before anyone knew her name. Her friendship with Coach Deion Sanders turned her into a national story, but her legacy was built on something far simpler: showing up with faith, kindness, and love. Watch the full BYUtv Big Stories episodes at byusn.com.
