The Injury

Wow the timing of this in her career is so similar to that of Allison.   Both during their Sophomore non conference season playing lights out following an outstanding freshman one.  It's just crazy how many women suffer torn ACL'S playing WBB.  I kind of understand a bit more why Amy plays as many players as she does.  Three players on our bench with 5 five of these injuries.

The amount of playing time has nothing to do with sustaining a major injury. We have seen over the years players play 35+ minutes for most of a season without having a major injury. With Allison we know what caused her first ACL injury. As I have read the chance of having a second ACL for women is higher than men. Allison second was in practice. I know I am looking forward to seeing Natalie on the floor next year.

I've noticed a number of issues with the painted area on the new court in both the men's and women's games. It seems like players' feet are getting "stuck" at an abnormally high rate in the lane causing issues like turned ankles. However this is the first serious injury I'm aware of.  Something to monitor.
