Injury Update

Another darn stress fracture, I figured that was what it was. Another tough break for Vanessa as well. I know we heard about her injury earlier.

From TV:

Meanwhile, the SDSU women could be without sophomore guard Vanessa Johnson and freshman forward Leah Dietel for the season. Johnson tore an ab muscle during a weight workout and Dietel - a key rebounder - has a stress fracture in her foot.

Re: Injury Update

This is tough news....never want to see anyone's season end due to injury.

Need to get them on bone strengthening supplements as soon as they sign to play for AJ.

Re: Injury Update

Well I know I have zero credability here but I thought I would give you all an update on Leah's injury. I ran into her this morning in the Wellness Center. She was running on a tread mill and I asked how the leg was. She said she is testing it out tonight for the coaches, but she fully expects to play in the first round game.

That sounds like a creditable source.

Good Luck Leah! Jacks could REALLY use another post in their drive for D-I supremecy.

Re: Injury Update

As TV pointed out, she's got plenty of time to get healthy. First round games are next weekend, f'r cryin' out loud.

I'm wondering if the indoor track at Frost has contributed to these foot injuries that the Jacks have been plagued with over the last few years (remember two years ago when half the team was in boots during the non-conf season?)

According to the coaching staff she was available to play in the Summit league tourney if she would have been needed. So, if AJ thinks she should be on the court I expect she will be.

TV's blog last night said she practiced yesterday. Good news!

Re: Injury Update

I agree this is good news. Jennifer has played really well since the injury, so hopefully it carries on with Leah back. We will need the added post player for the tourney.

Will be nice to add Leah to our depth. Clearly Jennifer Schut*^%$# has become a better player with the playing time she has rec'd. With Jenn and Leah available it will simply make the Jacks a better team.

You actually came closer to spelling Jennifer's last name than I would have come. I tell you what, from watching Jennifer last year (when she did play) and how she has played now, I really think she looks a lot sharper because she knows she is going to get real playing time (not just time towards the end of the game).
