That was cowboy country and I d always wanted to be a bronc rider, even after the accident. We moved to Oregon when I was eight, and I got interested in other things. Not too many rodeos out here. By the time I was in the seventh grade some of my friends were getting into wrestling. It seemed like fun; they were doing it, so I joined them. At first I didn t do too good, says Kacey. <br>At McNary High, a school of 1,600 students in grades 9 to 12, Tony Olliff is Kacey s wrestling coach and friend. But even with his help, Kacey must improvise and figure out his unique biomechanics to get a win.<br> Coach Olliff s the best, says Kacey, who also praises his other coach, Molly Gaily.  Tony jokes a lot, but he always pushes and encourages me. Last year he got down on the mat and tried not to use his legs, to feel it from my vantage. But he can t duplicate how I would do it, so he just lets me be creative. He s gives good tips, like different ways to do a cradle and stuff like that, but mostly he lets me do it on my own. <br> Kacey s style is very unorthodox, says Ryan Stephenson, a McNary senior who is ranked second in the state in the 103-pound class.  I ve learned a lot about wrestling from him. I have to really use my hands to keep him off my legs. I ve definitely become a better wrestler because of Kacey. He s much better than I ever expected him to be when he first came out for the team. <br>Kacey is best at 103 pounds---rated 19th in the state---but when he moves up to 112 pounds he can hold his own. He s hoping a little more track will keep him in the 103-pound class. Coach Olliff compares Kacey s upper body strength to a 171-pounder s. Although he recently got a weight set installed at home, Kacey s awesome strength and muscular physique have been developed from relying on his upper body for mobility the past nine years.<br>Kacey also races in the 1500 and 3000 in track. He uses a special racing chair and pulls up the school s best times in the 3000, although under Oregon School Activities Association guidelines Kacey can t score because of the racing chair. However, he is philosophical about such awkward times. For example, last year during a wrestling match, a frustrated opponent yelled to his coach,  How do I wrestle this freak? The remark generated penalty points, and the wrestler s coach immediately pulled him from the match.<br> That s the only kid that had that bad of an attitude, says Kacey.  Instead of shutting up and figuring out how to wrestle me, the kid just said something stupid. He just showed very poor sportsmanship.<br> I ve heard that a lot of kids are kind of scared of me at first. I understand---I m a little careful around the handicapped too, a little reluctant. It s a normal reaction to something different, until you get to understand it better. <br><br>Inspiring Others<br><br>Kacey has plenty of other activities besides sports. He sings in the school choir, is active in the Boy Scouts and is proving himself to be quite the actor as well. Last year he played the minor part of Montague in the school s production of Romeo and Juliet. This year, however, he plays the pivotal role of Puck in A Midsummer Night s Dream, another Shakespeare classic.<br>He also visits nearby elementary schools to talk about his disability and his accomplishments. It s a great way to educate and acquaint people with the fact
