"20/20" COVERS HURRICANE RITA ON FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 23

ABC News correspondents will be on the ground in Galveston, Houston and News Orleans to report the latest up-to-the-minute information on Hurricane Rita during a live broadcast on "20/20." Reports will also include how this massive Hurricane will most likely impact the rest of the county. "20/20" airs on FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 23 (10:00-11:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network. The show will be updated live on the west coast.

Also: Bob Brown profiles a young man with a spirit as generous as his talent. Kyle Maynard was born a congenital amputee, a condition which has no known cause and may affect fingers or a limb, but rarely affects all four limbs, as it did with Kyle. Yet he did not let his condition keep him from becoming a winning high school wrestler, good enough to compete in his state championships. "I didn't have to wrestle to my opponents, you know, I had to wrestle myself," he tells Brown. His presence as a wrestler could electrify a high school arena, and even though he isn't out of his teens, stories about Kyle are rooted like legends at his former north Georgia high school, Collins Hill. "Leading a normal life doesn't mean living a stagnant life... You're gonna look ahead and you're gonna set impossible goals that other people would say you can't achieve, and you can go out and do it," he says.

"20/20" is anchored by Elizabeth Vargas and John Stossel. David Sloan is the executive producer.
