Injury/Recovery updates:

Saw on instagram that Notre Dame freshman Emma Risch will miss the rest of the season due to hip surgery. She has been out for a while. She's an excellent shooter, and I'm sure could have contributed along the way.

There's some postings on the ND Thread (and The Bench, of course) on this. Emma apparently had some issues with her hip early on and everyone tried various ways to address them, but came to the conclusion that surgery was the best course of action. Given that the injury took place in the first half of the year and she's only played 7 games (which will be less than 30% of ND's games once they hit the ACC tourney), she should be able to qualify for a medical redshirt.

That said, ND is so hit with injuries at the guard position that Emma could've helped quite a bit. Since former walk-on Sarah Cernugel is currently the only guard on the bench, Ivey has been going with a permutation of line-ups and leaning heavily on Freshman Hannah Hidalgo and Grad Transfer Anna DeWolfe, both of whom are on the floor more than 30 mpg.

If any walking wounded are expected back at some point, it's probably Sonia Citron, who has been spotted taking part in practices.
Stay tuned.

 
Gamecocks 2024 signee, 6-5 Post Adhel Tac, was going to miss this, her senior, season of high school due to injury. She enrolled In South Carolina today and will immediately begin physical therapy under the supervision of our coaches and surgeons. Not saying the surgeons paid by her high school insurance weren't good, but I trust our team much more. (Not sure she has had the surgery yet or was waiting til she enrolled)

This is what we did with Amihere too. Welcome Adhel!

Makes sense if it's feasible to do so. And she gets the benefit of getting to know her team a little sooner. Win win for everyone.

What a blessing DeWolfe has been, huh? I saw her play last year and really liked her. I got excited about Risch when she received one of Shea Ralph's first few offers after she took over at Vandy. It was early in Shea's tenure but late in Risch's recruitment. Lots of teams have injury problems, but it sure seems like Notre Dame, UConn and poor old Vandy have had more than their fair share the past few years.
 
Watching SEC games today, I saw two more key players go down. No definitive word on either, but it didn't look good, and both had to be helped off the floor. Both appeared to be knee injuries. They were 6'6 Florida senior Ra Shaya Kyle, and Missouri's senior point guard Mama Dembele.
 
Pam Ward and Stefanie White spent the better part of the first quarter of the Notre Dame vs. N. Carolina game reviewing the continuing injury struggles of those two teams; noting it's not just those teams who have been plagued with injuries.

As a Notre Dame fan, I feel like a kid learning to drive a stick shift: go up one gear, go back a gear; get it in neutral, try reverse and now go forward again. The Irish got Sonia Citron back (with a full length sleeve and brace), but had Maddy Westbeld on the bench with a concussion. N. Carolina lost guard McPherson (again) yet the younger Key was back for awhile. For teams like this, you just hope they get a stretch when things are (relatively) static.
 
Although Sali Kourouma returned to play for Arizona against Utah yesterday, my wife read that she is now headed to surgery for her shoulder issues, it was one of those situations where she could help and not do any more damage.

I kind of assume that means done for the season, but I don't actually know that, as I never saw the article.

Sigh. And another - Daphane White, (GS), Jackson State, announced she tore her YKW.

Is it?

We are tracking them in this thread so it really, really looks bad. But I wonder how it compares with previous seasons when we didn’t have a thread tracking it.

I will admit that it looks bad this year but I would like to see a study done that compares seasons. Has there been a steady rise over the last 5/10 reasons? Is this year an anomaly?

The NCAA needs to commission a study

Clearly my statement is anecdotal based on the posts, but there seems to be more of an epidemic this year.

Agreed the NCAA should examine the issue closely.

This is beyond the NCAA and personally, I don't think they'd put the effort in considering which sports bring in most of the revenue.

The data is out there. Question is whether those at the grassroots level (HS, AAU coaches and trainers) are willing to take a step back and review how they do things. If you can help impact how players train and move their bodies as they grow into them, it could go a long way to help minimize some of these injuries.

I'm not Liking the news, just that you replied to it and I concur with your statement
 
Injury bug strikes another star. Cameron Brink left 6 minutes into the game tonight due to an apparent leg injury. Here's hoping it isn't anything serious.
