Paige's injury?

[cferraro04]

Someone posted that Geno said that Paige was hurt in the first half and it affected her for the entire game...does anyone know anything more regarding this?

Oh boy...and he also said it affected her play for the rest of the game...I hope it isn't anything serious.

Can we please not jump to conclusions?

Some ridiculous posts here. The UConn spokesperson clarified in the Press Conference that she was poked in the eye and had absolutely nothing to do with a concussion. Another fact free thread emerges.

Not every head injury is a concussion...

That is hugely different from the,"He said she banged her head in [sic] the ground." statement that someone said Geno said...

There was a play in the first half when Paige uncharacteristically missed a difficult layup and temporarily crumbled on the floor underneath the basket. I remember thinking, “Oh no” as ND pushed the ball back up the court on offense. Eventually, Paige caught up with the play and I stopped worrying. I suspect that was the play she got poked in the eye.

Nor all others, a knee.

Geno said she got hit in the face, last game and ND game. that must have affected her the rest of the game. No concussion, obviously or she would not have played second half.

No conclusion. She hit her face on the floor very sayin the game. She def was not the same.

Interesting because prior to this post there wasn't a single mention of the word, "concussion".

Is it ridiculous to ask a question? If it was clarified at a press conference then my question was answered...all of this finger-pointing and accusations are unnecessary.

There was they were just deleted.

So what happened? It is my understanding that against the Golden Domers that Paige fell, on her own, possibly landing on her face and then Geno mentioned that something else happened about a week and a half ago, which was clarified to mean it was a poke in her eye.
