I met a couple of more guys one could look up to Monday morning at Lied Library on the UNLV campus.

One stood 3 feet, 7 inches.

His name is Brandon Hamilton. He’s 28 years old. He’s from Detroit, but he has people here. For the past two years, he has been a student trainer at UNLV, taping ankles and treating hamstrings with the UNLV football and volleyball teams.
