JOE ROOP was born in the coal-mining town of Martwick, Kentucky, but he didn't want to be a miner. He wanted to play basketball.

Combining his natural height and athletic ability with dedication and hard work, Joe played his way to a college degree and local legend status.

His story proves that when you make the most of your natural gifts, there is no limit to what you can do.
