Stories of Impact

By Wes Hall April 1, 2025
When Tony and I started NCAS, we were serious about our mission to transform the landscape of adapted sports in the Triangle Area. Looking back, the progress we've made is remarkable, exceeding even our initial expectations.
July 19, 2024
It is with a heavy heart that I share Tony Luparello, co-founder of North Carolina Adapted Sports and dear friend, passed away Friday, July 19th. Tony was the driving force that encouraged me to move forward in the creation of NC Adapted Sports. He kept me in check, opened my eyes to our success when I could not see it, and lived to make an impact on the lives of others with a physical disability. A few weeks back, he was demonstrating how to tackle a cross slope for a new athlete. The image in my head of him effortlessly taking on this obstacle, seizing the moment, and enjoying life will be one of my fondest memories. It is a lot to process that our weekly meetings will be no more, though I know he is pain-free and crushing some mountain cycle trails in heaven. Wes Hall, CEO and Co-Founder NCAS
