IRONWOOD -- You might remember several stories TV6 has aired about Ironwood football player Cody Rye.

The Red Devil lineman was paralyzed in a car accident when he was a child, but that didn't stop him from playing varsity football for two years.

Cody e-mailed TV6 Sports Director Mike Ludlum Monday night (10/17), saying his episode on the ESPN show E:60 will be televised next Tuesday, October 25 at 6 p.m. central time, 7 p.m. eastern.

Cody finished as the national runner-up in the high school Rudy Awards contest in February.

The High School Football Rudy Awards searches for the most inspirational football players in America who best demonstrate the exemplary values of Notre Dame Football Legend Daniel "Rudy" Ruettiger, the iconic figure from the football film, Rudy.
