Austin was a walk-on at the start of the season, and they added a volleyball player recently.

 

[Vowelguy]

Austin was a walk-on

Ah, thanks.
So at least they've got one extra body.

Are all the injuries season ending, or will anyone be back?

 

[John Glass]

The ESPN announcers said Pfirman's knee cap was on the side of her knee, and she will have a MRI Monday. I would say she is a long shot to return this year.
The other three have ACL injuries.

And to think of those players who not long ago left the Turtles, figuring they'd never get any playing time!

Knee cap on the SIDE of the knee. Ouch!!

Knee cap on the SIDE of the knee. Ouch!!

In my case it didn't hurt too much until my knee cap popped back in.

several players have left in the last few years, and they didn't all leave because of playing time

That knee cap on the side sounds awful. Certainly not where a knee cap belongs.

I was injured playing intramural softball in college. I only looked at it my ankle once when I got to the hospital. They were getting ready to X-ray it and I sat up and took a peek. When your ankle is pointing at almost a 90 degree angle to the OUTSIDE of your leg when your leg is straight, that my friends is a badly dislocated ankle.

What a tough season the turtles hare having injury wise. I don't like Maryland as a program, but I don't like to see this happen to any team.

Well, they could be Happy Together, or be on Needles and Pins, but, I'm afraid when the Freeze looks down the bench, the answer's gonna be..

this one's too easy..

 

[Man-Man]

One of their incoming players recently tore her ACL. They are having some of the worst luck.
