as an honor airy african- american. thank you very much. (laster and applause). >> reporter: a day of accomplishment here is concluded. but there is still time to reflect on the magnitude of

what has happen, and what is still to come. >> even in a day among days, that has to be a big highlight. >> like i said, i'm living a dream. effect i get to do is somehow beyond my wildest expectations. jim brown. i couldn't even mess with him, that's too emotional. >> at some point, you realize there's not enough people that are doing good work in elected office, and i shouldn't stand on the sidelines and complain. if not now than when the? all of those things led me to saying i need to get in the ring and do my part to not just make sure the neighborhood i grew up in, but the city i'm so proud of, reaches its potential. >> thanks, matt for that report. by the way, you saw govern toker schwarzenegger featured in that piece, as well. but this generation may not even realize that in 1970, at the age of 23, schwarzenegger became the youngest person to

be named mr. olympia. he would go on to win that competition six straight years. of course schwarzenegger was elected governor of california in 2003. you may also remember former nfl quarterback heath schuller who is now making his rounds in the u.s. capital. he was the third overall pack in the 1994 draft by the washington redskins. he played just three short seasons before finally retiring in 1997 because of a foot injury. well, he is now congressman schuller, and he represents north carolina's 11th district. still to come on net impact, one athlete recall as vivid memories of war as a youngster in war-torn bosnia. >> they kidnapped us and took to us where my dad was staying, which, and we just kind of hid there for a couple of months. >> now that same athlete is living his dreams out on the soccer field right here in the

united states. and the husband saving his wife's life, but they say the philadelphia phillies played a major role in her recovery. we'll tell you how that happened, and you'll hear her amazing story. you're watching net impact on

here is another tidbit for you. former president dwight eisenhower, gerald ford, and ron at reagan all reached the highest office in our land, but before they were president, they were each standout athletes in college. wow. now this. what a year it's been for this next athlete. his name is bofgio. the chicago fire welcomed the rookie mid-fielder to her roster, and being all to play in front of his own hometown has been. a a dream come true, especially

when you consider that his journey began in another country where his memories of death and destruction still remain a big part of him. josh mora has gee or geo's story. >> i spent a lot of time playing with my family, so that's really basically it, that i remember, is just playing around with my cousins, running in the wood, and that sort of thing. >> reporter: peaceful life. >> yeah, very nice, very peaceful. >> reporter: until he was 7 years old, he lived an idealic life in bosnia with his parents and older brother. his family owned land and had money, but wars a all around them. >> it's war, you see people dead. i lost my brother to, you know, yes, i lost my brother. yes, a lot of people dead, you can see it right there, bombed everything, you know, it's war. >> there are stores like they

held up father, you know, rained the mom and just kind of left the kids. >> reporter: they left behind their family, their money, their home, their lives. >> had worked in the office 17 and a half years, she worked in the office, too, and war come, and we lost everything. and how she say, we left august 20, '94. just take a couple of bags in car and we stop at the border. >> my dad paid off a soldier, or i think he gave him our car to let my dad come across, and he stayed with his niece, who was located in croatia. so my mom told me and my brother to fake that i had a ear ache, and my brother had an

eye problem. so when they let us come across, because, i mean, there was no way we could get across, you know. i remember they would read off names for like nurses to come take and you bring you in, and wire kind of in the middle of the line, they & they read our names off, and they wouldn't allow us -- you know, other people were in line, had been waiting there for days, you know, just like everyone else, and i remember the guards shooting, like, guns in the air, and they kind of ran away, and the guards came and grabbed me and my mom and my brother and took us across, and while we were there, a soldier who my dad paid off to, like -- he kidnapped us, and, like, took us to where my dad was staying, and we just kind of hid there for a couple of months, you know, and it was like we were, like, we had nothing. >> reporter: for a short time,

germany accepted bosnian refugees. >> it was pretty hard. there was a lot of racism going on. we were an easy target for a lot of the kids. we were all put together with nothing, you know. you know, you could tell the way we dressed and everything, we had nothing. and we were made fun of so much, i mean i was fighting every day after school. three years later, the german government ended its program for families who didn't have visas, so the husidics had a choice, go back to boss the kneia, or end up in the united states. they went to chicago. >> that's when i finally felt like you can enjoy life now, we've made it. you can relax now. you know, it's yours, so, you know, i always, like, wanted to have a house i could have friends over and stuff, and every day, like, since we had the house, i always have people over, there's not like one day where my mom is not cooking for

everyone. but in bosnia, it's just like that. you always have family over, friends over, you're grilling. >> reporter: and from there, life was good. boggio starred in soccer, and now he's getting plenty of playing time for the fire. >> i can't really describe like how you feel, like -- because you, like, you remember, when you go back, it all comes back to you like everything happened yesterday, and its just like, you know, it's -- you try to make it happy where you get to see your family again, but as soon as like that goes away, like, wow, like i left all of this behind. what if i didn't have this sort of future? >> reporter: and so you can understand when the practices get long and the guys get sweaty and the work seems difficult that boggio doesn't seem to find site hard. he is living a life that years ago simply didn't eve exist for

him, not even in his dreams. >> when we played columbus, it was like a pretty packed house, and starting in that game, i it was like the best feeling work like such a big feeling of accomplishment, like everything my family and i have been through. >> you watch him after 15 years behind, i will show you he was involved, unbelievable. not just one, almost two guys, you know, oh, feel good. >> it has been a pretty good year for the chicago fire, they may have had in the playoffs, and the team is hoping for bigger things in their future. now let's talk baseball. what a season it was for the philadelphia phillies. one of the things that always feeds the philadelphia phillies is their fan support, which is always off the chart. by the way, they had more than 50 sellouts at sipsens bank park this past season, but this next story takes fan support

you might say to a whole new level. as sportsnet philadelphia reports, one couple's love of the phillies truly became a matter of life and death. >> reporter: don has seen hundreds of phillies games, but it's the one he didn't see that he'll always remember. don and his wife sandy had tickets to see the phillies play the angels last june in what turned out to be a forgettable 7-1 loss. the events that drains spired that night, however, they will never forget. >> i went upstairs to get ready, and i got a splitting headache like i've never had before. i mean, this was the most intense pain i've ever had. he came upstairs and found me rolled into a fetal position on our bed, and all he could decipher from what i was saying was bad pain, hurts bad. >> i was just totally -- you know, company can see your life just flash in front of you. i took her into the hospital, they took her in for a cat scan, the doctor came out and said we have a helicopter

dispatched from the university of pennsylvania coming down to pick her up, and this was, like, three hours after this first when i came home that this happened. it's, like, what is going on here? the skull is full of blood, it's a bleed, we have to get her up there immediately. she came in between annal and a 9 and 10 is fatal, and usually they don't make the flight, but they said we have her stabilized, next morning they twenty in and operated on her, and long, long road to recovery, and 50% of then people don't make this, they told me. >> reporter: if he was not at home to find his wife, it she likely would have not survived what turned out for a brain aneurysm. with that, they believe the phillies saved her life. >> don came home from work three hours early. the only time don comes home from work is when he's going to a phillies game. otherwiseny stays the rig rather time >> if it wasn't for me going to watch the phillies game that night, she would. >> reporter: be here for this

interview. >> reporter: a speech and language therapist by trade, she's had to deal with the harsh irony of struggling with basic communication. under normal circumstances, degrees may have completely ravaged their lives, but a phillies title drive proved to have therapeutic powers. >> she followed the phillies games through the playoffs, light late in the year, and he was able in the hospital bed to to watch that, the world series. her sister came down and watched her for game four, which i winter up to see, and she weighed in the hospital bed in our house, and she watched the whole game there, and it just played out that the phillies won that world series that year, and it was almost like, you know, somebody was watching up above there. >> one of the things that they would do is every day they would come in asking what day it was, you know, what's the next holiday, things like that, to see if my brain was functioning. so when the phillies were there in the playoffs, they would come in every day and ask me, okay, who won last night?

so i would have to remember who won, what the score of the game was, because they knew i was watching the phillies. so it was a big part of my recovery watching the games during the playoffs. >> and you can't blame them for believing that the greatest save in fills hist -- phillies history didn't take part of the field. >> they were just a major part of her recovery, and for sure part of my recovery. >> my neurosurgical team knows what they did to save my life. the phillies have no idea what what they did to save my life, but i consider them my heros now inspect >> and we certainly wish her the best on her recovery and for the philly, be a speedy return to the world series. coming up next, there are hockey fans who take obsession to a whole new level. we'll explain. south africa,

an 8-year-old boy picked up the game of golf from his father. by the age of 9, he was already outplaying him. the odds of this gentle lad winning the junior world golf championships at the age of 14? 1 in 16 million. the odds of that same boy then making it to the u.s. and european pro-golf tours? 1 in 7 million. the odds of the "big easy" winning the open championship once and the u.s. open championship twice? 1 in 780 million. the odds of this professional golfer having a child diagnosed with autism? 1 in 150. ernie els encourages you to learn the signs of autism at autismspeaks.org. early diagnosis can make a lifetime of difference.

earnhardt this hull jersey. why dennis hull jersey, why is that? >> to be different. >> reporter: i'm looking here, there's a kane number 14. i hate to say this, but past 88 what happened here? >> no, i'm 14, i'm pat kane, the real pat kane. >> reporter: you were born on the 14th? >> exactly. >> reporter: you were born april 14th, 1960? >> yeah, exactly. >> reporter: do you have your driver's license? let me see this. i need more on that within sense of license. your plummer's license. that says pat kane. okay -- think i'm gonna believe him. but then you might not believe this. you show up showing whose jersey? >> eric, my favorite. >> reporter: and he happens to be here. >> he happens to be here, i

>> absolutely. >> reporter: so at your next hawks game, remember, everybody can be somebody, and we mean anybody. >> i don't normally ask people this, but can i have of have your autograph? >> sure. >> reporter: i really appreciate this. >> where do you watch me to sign? >> caller: just sign my sweater. thank you, i appreciate pit. >> and that will do it for another edition of net impact. i'm art fennell, thanks for joining us. coming up next months on net impact as the year comes to an end, we'll take a look back at some of our top sports stories that shaped 2009. and to find net impact in your area and for the law enforcementest breaking local

today, the annual hardenwood series begins. the nebraska cornhuskers land in southern california, to match up with the defending pac-10 champions, usc trojans. both teams are sporting a new look to their offense. the huskers are going big. while the trojans are placing their hopes on the shoulders of senior dwight lewis. >> it's a big game for us. have to be a leader by example. verbally. that's what your seniors should do. your returning leading scorer should do that. >> the only remaining starter from last year's tournament team. a lot expected from dwight lewis.

and the nebraska big men are ready to accept the challenge. the annual hardwood series. nebraska and usc. college hoops action, starts college hoops action, starts now. caption funding provided by fox sports net welcome to the galen center in downtown los angeles, where we welcome you inside for the pac-10/big 12 hardwood series. today, it's the nebraska cornhuskers and the university of southern california trojans. this hardwood series is a great conference matchup that takes place the next two weeks. here's a look at some of the games you'll see, including, how about this? number one kansas against ucla.

hi, everybody. i'm steve physioc. this is marcus johnson, former college basketball player of the year. marcus, i love the nonconference grudge matches. the back ten against the big 12. >> welcome back, buddy. we missed you around here. and my favorite movie, "hoop dreams." we're talking about the revolving talent in college basketball. the great teams. we had upsets. illinois gets defeated. knocks off louisville. michigan state gets knocked off. parity this college season. >> a new guy through the door at usc, that is kevin o'neill. he got two back on friday. >> who might that be? very familiar with this player. last year, he had modest

numbers. but you look at what he did when the team played without him. they were 1-6, when they played with marcus johnson, they were 13-4. marcus johnson, one of the most athletic wings in the country. for nebraska, henry, he is an on-ball defender. he is much better basket. usc has got to deal with this sprinter. >> nebraska will get off usc full-court pressure. you bet. when we come back, we'll go inside the nebraska locker room. we'll hear from their coach. it's the nebraska cornhuskers and the university of southern california trojans, from the galen center.

>> steve: that's common ka bay, a beautiful day in downtown los angeles, where we have the university of southern california trojans and the nebraska cornhuskers. let's go inside the locker room with doc sadler of the cornhuskers. >> make sure he's a right-handed player. make sure you make him keep the ball in front of you. make this guy turn the basketball over. keep the ball in front of you. lewis, the guy's a good shooter. we have to make sure we're there on the catch. he will drive one or two dribbles and pull up and shoot. vucevic, the guy's a good player. puts it on the floor one time,

be there. he tends to put it on the floor two or three times, be there and make a play. johnson, he's a tough player. tough player. make sure. go at him. go at him. go at him. >> steve: that's doc sadler inside that nebraska locker room. here is the nebraska starting lineup. two bigs at 6'10", brandon ubel, and jorge. he led the huskers to the n.i.t. he is a defense-first guy. the usc lineup he'll see tonight. much bigger than the huskers. vucevic is 6'10". johnson and simmons are 6'6". lewis, 6'5" and a good scorer. probably the most important player today, donte smith, the point guard going against that nebraska pressure. and usc had their coach, tim

boyd, take their team to the title last year. now, kevin o'neill takes over. a 13-year head coach, in college and the nba. the series history, this is the seventh meeting between usc and nebraska. and the trojans have won five of the previous six. last time they met, it was the trojans by ten over the cornhuskers. here we go. steve physioc and marques johnson with you. the usc, the cardinal in gold. and the nebraska cornhuskers in the red uniforms. nebraska cornhuskers are 3-1 this year. their one loss was to st. louis. usc is 2-1. their one loss to lmu. seems they lost 27 games last year. >> marques: an outstanding matchup between the bigs of nebraska and marcus johnson.

ubel, not having any of it. blocked the shot. that's going to be a tough matchup for ubel. ubel is about 6'11", a five-inch height advantage. >> steve: there's anderson. they want to go big against usc's size. anderson misses the three. and diaz tries to mac it through himself. it goes to the university of southern california. >> marques: doing a good job of keeping it out of this area. >> steve: marcus simmons really shooting well. but he misses his first shot. a good passer out high. >> marques: both teams are starting out man-to-man.

>> steve: brandon ubel, a 6'10", freshman from middleton park, kansas. >> marques: they're trying to scrap and feel just yet. there will be run and jumps out there. watching nebraska, i love their man-to-man size on their defense. looks like they're playing the two-three zone and playing it properly. >> steve: look how well they rotate. marcus johnson, a young man who transferred from connecticut. they feel he has a great future. >> marques: after marcus johnson tore his rotator cuff, in a monster jam last year. missed seven games. trojans struggled with him out of the lineup. that's a hard dunk when you tear a rotator cuff dunking, you're doing some dunking. >> steve: nothing wrong with a layup. this is sek henry. he's been marvelous controlling that basketball. sek henry with 17 assists and only 3 turnovers.

immediately usc forces pressure. >> marques: they will go against marcus simmons. and lewis knocked down -- marcus simmons put a blanket on jerome randle. but sek henry has his work cut out for him. >> steve: usc wants to get back washington and gerrity. they will be a lot stronger. >> marques: you see marcus johnson looking at his coach, kevin o'neill. marcus johnson box off to prevent the pass entry from brandon ubel. you have to adjust your defense. >> steve: doc sadler told us yesterday, that ubel is a good shooter. but he drops his first two here. >> marques: he gets to the three-point line. >> steve: marcus johnson has it stripped. almost gets it back. picking up the ball is lance jeter. anderson misses the easy layup. and it will go out of bounds.

>> marques: nice job by the trojans to move the basketball. marcus johnson serving as the facilitator. and a slow job by diaz. you see with the big guys trying to get out in the perimeter. you have to get out out and know who the shooters are. >> steve: usc, trying to pack it in the lane. unfortunately for them, nebraska gets inside. and sek henry, who has a lot of family and friends here. he grew up in southern california. originally signed at arizona state. >> marques: one of the tricky, left-handed guards, that have dominated college basketball and basketball. that's a tricky right there. nice body control on the last basket to get it inside. >> steve: lewis to donte smith, who hits the three-point. he is not a true point guard.

>> marques: last year, just big. he was 25 pounds overweight. he shed the 25 pounds. and has really lly altered and changed his game for the better. >> steve: huskers have the lead, 10-9. >> marques: they try to keep you out of the key. get in the key 25 to 27 times a game, they're going to lose. they do a nice job with the weakside help. but they're giving up outside shots. pick your poison. >> steve: the defense suffocated lewis on that one. huskers rotate over and defend him. him. we've got

[vibrates] g morning, sunshine. wakey, wakey. text me back. [chattering] [vibrates] hey. did you tell your parents about us? let's skip first period together. did you get all my texts? is practice over yet? where you at? are you with your friends? that's laaaa-mee. capital "x," lower-case "o," capital "x," lower-case "o," i love you. jk. i hate you. jk. are you ignoring me? we're in a huge fight right now. is it something i did? i can see your lights on. i'm coming over. this isn't a joke. what did you dream about? [overlapping] is it me? i'm lonely. holla back. holla back. let's try something new.

nude pics. send me some. text me. >> steve: they won the city rivalry in football last night, beating ucla 28-7. >> marques: they did. when you grew up in los angeles, you grew up loving ucla and the championships.

usc fans will hate me for this. but it's all good. give pete carol two weeks to prepare, and he's awful tough to beat. >> steve: there is kevin o'neill. he has 13 years ncaa and nba head coaching experience. he was at arizona. he was with lute olson, back with the '88 team. a lot of history in this conference. >> marques: some terrific players. bad passing angle from sek henry. you want to be below the free-throw line when you feed the post. >> steve: lewis has the shot blocked. it may have been sek henry who drew the foul. he only had three turnovers. and already has two in this afternoon's game. >> marques: the assist to turnover ratio, 5.3 for sek henry. one of the tops in the conference. usc doing a nice job of pestering and bothering and

playing terrific defense. >> steve: how about dwight lewis? he had 22 points against u.c. riverside. but only shooting 25% since. your defense is saying, they don't have todd gibson or demarcus rosen anymore. >> marques: you come up with the same thing we talked to doc sadler about. you make him put the basketball on the floor. we saw the locker room talk that doc sadler had with his team. you shoot off the dribble or attacking the rim. and you try to keep him from fouling. he will kill you if you allow him to put up the jump shot. >> steve: sek henry will run about 15 minutes at the point guard. they need a backup to lance jeter. >> marques: a tough pass for sek henry. he's coming into the game, the leading scorer for nebraska, about 6'3". marcus simmons is long and

quick. >> steve: keeping that ball over his head. dropping it home. nebraska now trails by one. >> marques: diaz says that pau gasol was his idol growing up. you see a lot of elements of his game. there's the catch and shoot. >> steve: have to be able to find him. >> marques: put it on the floor. don't let him get his feet set. you're asking for trouble. >> steve: dwight has eight points. we said he was not shooting that well at the last couple of games. drains a couple outside. eight points total. usc's lead is now two. >> marques: he's the guy. he's played extensive minutes, dwight lewis, the leading scorer for the trojans. really takes the challenge seriously of leading this team this season. they had some great years the last couple of years. a whole, new ball game today

under kevin o'neill. >> steve: richardson for three. brandon was shooting 27% from three-point range. you hear kevin o'neill, angrily hitting the monitor. >> marques: kevin richardson, another local kid. they're stacking the stands with family members. anything they can get offensively. talk about offense on the part of vucevic. he has some of the biggest hands. about a 19 shoe. you swear he's going to grow. about 40%. looks like he has another inch or two to stretch out. young man, 19 years old. >> steve: jeter back in at the point. jones in now. eshaunte jones, the freshman from ft. wayne, indiana.

there is a foul inside. officials, today, are dick cartwell, and randle le paul. >> marques: on the high/low delivery, jorge brian diaz has to realize that he left richardson wide-open in the borner. he needs a good pass inside to get donte smith to go for the steal. and you can get wide-open, right corner jumpers for a guy that knocks down the long three, in brandon richardson, who has become pretty good about himself. >> steve: ubel has played well early. >> marques: ubel has had himself a great start to this basketball game. just a freshman. overland park, kansas. confidence in this game.

>> steve: six points for ubel. usc will miss here. they also from alex stepheson in the game for the first time. the 6'9", junior l.a. harbor westlake. >> marques: had to sit out last year. came back to los angeles because of issues with his family, health-wise. he's happy to be back out here. a lot of time over the summer to improve his offensive skills. >> steve: richardson missed for nebraska. they go down low. vucevic out to marcus simmons. doesn't have an opening. nebraska will really suffocate the lane. a great stat. an opponent gets it in the lane. >> marques: they like to get it in there 27 times or they will lose. that's why they have great weakside help. you see the double-teaming job by diaz and ubel. >> steve: last year, nebraska was the smallest team in the big

12. averaging only 6'2". they were almost the smallest team in the ncaa. dwight lewis with the miss. >> marques: that's why size is a premium, in terms of recruiting for doc sadler. especially at the guard position. here, lance jeter, strong to the basketball. can create space with his body. >> steve: a former football player at the university of cincinnati, has become a power in college football. the bearcats. here's the rebound by vucevic. we have a whistle and a time-out. 11:54 to play in the first half.

>> steve: we've got more hardwood series sanction coming your way. baylor versus arizona state. and baylor is the second leading scorer in the big 12. they're the best rebounding team in the big 12. arizona state, has a good guard. they can shoot it outside. they're first in the pac-10. we'll see that baylor/asu game later. >> marques: they have a transfer from michigan.

a big man who blocks shots. averaging 16 points, 9 rebounds. gives the baylor team for arizona state, a great freshman out of minnesota. had a spectacular season. and you mentioned eric boateng. the reason they beat lsu. they just throttled the lsu tigers. baylor/arizona state. >> steve: here's usc with the basketball. trailing by two. dwight lewis brought it up short. but donte smith, the point guard. and they said they would pressure him. here's that pressure. diaz with the long arms. he's a guy who red shirted last year. coming over from puerto rico. >> marques: you have alex stepheson posting up against anderson, at 6'3". a mismatch. but usc could not deliver the pass inside.

>> steve: simmons with the rebound. it is stepheson. >> marques: north carolina, in the ncaa tournament, spent a lot of time this summer working in los angeles. and played against big baby davis, kevin garnett, craig brackins out of iowa state. all those guys working on their skills. see if alex stepheson gets the benefit of that in terms of his post play. >> steve: he is a guy who had a left knee defect. he was out two to three weeks. his first game was on friday. he scored two team points but nine rebounds. >> marques: he played in local summer leagues.

one of the toughest power forward types at that size that i've played against. >> steve: jeter swings it right to sek henry. usc must extend their defense because nebraska has shooters. >> marques: ubel can knock down the shot. >> steve: anderson throws it away. lewis down to the other end. vucevic wanted it. he wanted to reverse the basketball. so did kevin o'neill. >> marques: nice job of interior pass. as doc sadler has jorge brian diaz out there. and usc exploits that. >> steve: kevin o'neill, with the new system, has to get these guys to understand it. it will not work as quickly. that's one of the challenges of the pac-10. they've lost so many great players to the nba and

graduation. this will be a rebuilding year for the league. >> marques: it will, indeed. that's why you get teams that have a lot of their lineup, returning. teams that have the bulk of their players coming back, have a chance to make some noise. >> steve: the left-hander, henry, misses long. ubel tries to pass to himself. it goes to vucevic. he has five already. >> marques: the first couple games, he played 28 out of 40 minutes. he is as happy as anyone to get back in the lineup. >> steve: that's a lot. 78 out of 40. that's like 6 of 5.
