Introducing "The Real AJ"
Twenty-three year old AJ Starr grew up on a farm in northeast Alabama. He was born with Cerebral Palsy. The love and support of the entire Starr family in his hometown Centre was an important factor in his youth. AJ received his bachelor degree in May 2014 from The University of Alabama where he is on the football equipment staff. AJ is currently pursuing his master’s degree.
In late 2013, AJ’s life story received national attention and acclaim when it was featured on ESPN.
