Tecumseh softball coach Gordon Wood coached Jackie Biehler in Cub ball as a middle schooler.

Biehler broke her neck doing a gymnastics stunt in summer 2021 .

She's breathing and eating on her own, able to talk and has limited use of her arms and legs, getting around via a motorized wheelchair.

"I'm just glad they let me be part of the team," she says.
