Malin, a standout Tiger athlete and son of FHS teacher and coach Jon Malin, was critically wounded July 14 by an improvised explosive device (IED) while on patrol with the United States Army in Afghanistan. Malin lost both legs in the explosion and has subsequently undergone several surgeries at Walter Reed Hospital in Washington, D.C.
