No Danger!

[OldAlum]

Fuller reports that Dangerfield wont play on the U-18 team due to an injury. No other info on the injury.

According to Paul Doyle Courant Beat Writer, Crystal has a hip injury.

That's 3 players that are using the Summer to get over injuries.

I am sorry to hear of Dangerfield's injury. I sure hope it is nothing serious and resting this summer will allow for her to heal. We spent the entire last year on pins and needles with Durr, and her injury, that kept her from competing on 2 USA teams last summer. Hoping for her the recovery is swift and complete.

I follow Dana Evans information closely as she is a prime target for Louisville. Her club coach tweeted out last week that she was named to the team. I could not find any information anywhere, confirming this, or why she was named to the team. I assumed it was an injury or illness.

Best wishes to Dangerfield in her recovery.

So bummed for her. Was really looking forward to seeing how she did leading that team. Would have been a great experience for her, and would have been great experience from a basketball skills perspective. Get well soon Crystal!!!!

And no Amanda Kimball to help them. Not a good look.

Gol dang #%&@* stuff! I was really hoping to see you play this summer. I hope the injury isn't serious. Please get well soon, Little Miss Danger.

Hope this doesn't mess up her chances of making the 2020 Olympic team...

commitment to team is more important than injuries

It is a hip injury. We don't know anything more yet.
Keep fingers crossed. This is a terrible development.

It is a pre existing condition and CD is not expected to miss any practice time with the team in the fall.

This is encouraging and hopeful & I desperately want to belief this. If only there were a source? The prior article from this morning stated:
"The severity of her injury is unknown."

 

[rvwsleep]

I saw it on the other UConn forum.
Check out Jim Fuller. Would I post something completely fabricated??

No you would not. It was not my intention to accuse you of frabricating-as I said, I'm more desperate for what you posted to become reality.

"UConn incoming freshman guard Crystal Dangerfield underwent hip surgery on Friday to repair a preexisting injury and the school announced that she is expected to be fully recovered in time for the preseason. "

Not just an injury, but an injury requiring surgery per Jim Fuller.

And no Amanda Kimball to help them. . . .

I know we lost Rosemary, but I hadn't heard about Amanda. What happened to her?

 

[OldAlum]

Sounds like another torn labrum. Are labrums the new ACL?

My Blunder! Rosemary was lost to Liberty. Amanda is still around I hope.

Is this the same injury that Collier has? It would be nice to have a healthy team for once. Last year we had Chong with the IT band injury and Butler with the hand injury. This year we have KLS coming back from a broken foot, Collier with her injury, and now Crystal Dangerfield is fresh off of surgery.

 

[Charliebball]

If next season wasn't going to be challenging enough now one has to hope that the walking wounded will be able to play up to their usual capabilities once recovered............the only good news is the timing of the injuries........

Brianna Banks before that and Bria Hartley. Also Courtney. When was the last time UCONN did not have someone injured?

 

[DaddyChoc]

these players wait til they get to college to have the surgery so they're covered by the team's insurance and the staff can monitor and have some say-so about the situation

Either that or those ultra-tough UConn practices on rare occasion can be dangerous to one's health.........comes with the territory I suppose..........

Yeah like Gabby's second ACL surgery was done by UConn even though she was in the middle of her senior year.

Same thing with Caroline Doty's 1st ACL tear in HS senior year.
