ANAHEIM, Calif. (Nov. 18, 2009) -  USA Volleyball would like to pass along an update on Miles Britton of San Martin, Calif.

The teen-ager is in remission from a fast-paced form of lymphoma. In 2008, the Greater Bay Area Make-A-Wish Foundation® granted Britton's wish to see the U.S. Men's National Team play at the Olympic Games in Beijing.

Not only did Britton get to see the team compete, he also got to visit a U.S. Men's practice at Beijing Normal University the morning of their semifinal match against Serbia.

Prior to his illness, which was diagnosed early in 2007, Britton was a middle blocker for the Los Gatos Apex Boys' Volleyball Club. He is a senior this year at St. Lawrence Academy in Santa Clara.

In June, USA Volleyball caught up with Miles when he came to San Jose, Calif., to see the U.S. Men play China in the FIVB World League. Here is his most recent update: MORE
