Basketball player David Eng to carry Canadian flag at Paralympics
RIO DE JANEIRO — When David Eng made his Paralympic debut 12 years ago in Athens, coach Mike Frogley would jot down a word each day and pin that word on the wall.
They were words like “leadership” and “commitment,” character traits Frogley wanted his players to embody.
They were words, Eng decided then and there, to live by.
“I started focusing on that,” Eng said. “That was what I wanted to become, was that type of person.”
