Coastal Carolina University third baseman Scott Woodward, who has a severe to profound hearing loss, smiles as he holds Nicholas Webb, 5, of Ocean Bay Elementary School, and is surrounded by other deaf students from Horry County Schools at Coastal Carolina University.

Twenty-four hearing impaired children from 7 different Horry County Schools came to Coastal Carolina University to meet Woodward and watch the baseball game against Winthrop Monday afternoon. "It means a lot to me to have the kids come out and see me play today and be an example and show them not everything is impossible," said Woodward.
