A South Bend high school student still recovering from an injury is receiving a national honor.
Brett Banasiewic is the 2012 Toyota Athlete of the Year for BMX Park.
The Washington High School senior suffered a serious brain injury last August while practicing for an event in Virginia. He's now rehabbing in Texas.
Banasiewicz has had quite an impact on South Bend, starting a skate park called The Kitchen.
