How Did Hansel Enmanuel Lose His Arm?
Austin Peay guard Hansel Enmanuel has one arm, but he has never let that stop him from accomplishing his goals.
The 6-foot-6 junior at Austin Peay has been a viral star since his high school days.
Most people who come across him always want to know his story of how he lost his arm.
When he was 6 years old, Enmanuel was playing with his friends in the Dominican Republic when he decided to climb a wall. That would turn out badly for him, as the wall would fall on top of him and trap his left arm.
It would soon require surgery where doctors would be forced to amputate his arm inches below the left shoulder.
Hansel Enmanuel spent six months in the hospital. Once released, he began playing basketball, which has led him to where he is now.
