Message: [QUOTE="sun, post: 4530469, member: 11664"] Some headgear should at least be made available during practice since it's understandable that some players might be self-conscious about wearing it in a game due to being embarrassed. Considering that Carol was injured in practice, I wonder if any has yet been made available to her or not by UConn. Just because she wears a yellow "no contact" jersey doesn't mean that she won't fall on her own without contact. Of course a player would need to be willing to wear it, if a mutually agreeable style were to be made available. I wonder if the staff has an official policy yet on offering headgear to players being eased back onto the court after being concussed? Do you think that the school offered the facemask to Edwards or do you that she had to buy it on her own? It seems that the team provides most all of the other protection that the players wear. These are questions that I have as a CT citizen & fan. [/QUOTE]
