Lower Merion volunteer firefighter is back on the lacrosse field with his high school team after he was seriously injured in a crash last summer.
Shaffer was flown from the scene of the accident to Penn Presbyterian where he spent about a week with a brain bleed, fractured eye socket, broken leg, and a torn ACL and MCL.
"It feels great finally getting back out with the family, the team, firefighting again, it feels great," he said. "Mentally it was just to keep pushing, keep going forth. The never-give-up attitude. That’s always what I told the team—never give up."
