Can anyone share exactly what injury he is dealing with and when we can expect his return. He was high scorer in two of our best games, American and GW. I feel like we can gel back to an exciting winning team but his return is critical to any major rebound.

I talked to him at the game and he told me that he hoped to be ready for the next game, if not the Navy game !! Didn't ask what his injurie was but he was in a boot for a while, I suspect ankle!!

Sean got hurt during the third game of the Air Force tourney against Lindenwood. I missed most of the first half of that game on the internet because I thought that the game started at 2:00, instead of 1:00, so I did not actually see him get hurt. Others here who were watching the game said it was a knee, and someone posted that the announcer said that it looked to be the same knee that he was already wearing a brace on.

It means absolutely nothing, but I observed that both he and Noah were in street clothes for the last two home games without any outward appearance of having a brace on. I am guessing that Noah must have also aggrevated his knee during the trip to Air Force, but I do not remember him ever coming out of a game because of injury.

We miss the athleticism that Mathias Case gives us, and we have been without him since he looked like he sprained his ankle 4 weeks ago at GW. I know that he was on crutches at game end and was in a boot when we played at home against UMBC, but he was not in a boot for either of the two home games last week.

I did notice that Jack was not on the bench for either of last weeks games, which makes perfectly good sense if he was in concussion protocol as someone posted here.

Finally, Hamilton was on crutches last Wednesday against ODU but he seemed to ne walking okay yesterday without any crutches.

Thanks for the thorough summary, WM75!

Thank you, 75. Seems like the eyeball test is the only way to get any info on the status of our players. Noah has only played in the three games at the AF tourney. His minutes were 27, 26(started), and 16 (started). So it could be assumed that he was injured (or reinjured) during game three of that tourney.

I also noticed on Sunday that, aside from Jake, none of the players who were in street clothes seemed to have any obvious limping or bracing.

It’s frustrating how little communication there is FROM Tribe Athletics to its most dedicated fans.

We desperately need a Jack Texiera or Kim Philby to spill the beans whether it’s on the health status of our best RB, half our MBB team or the Kaplan renovation project.

If W&M can be so secretive about basic info then I will be just as secretive as to when they can expect another check from me......

Do other mid-major schools put out injury reports? Genuine question - I honestly don't know. I could actually see something like that becoming mandatory with the rise of sports gambling.

I always kinda figured the reason we didn't hear more about injuries is we just don't have the same volume of reporters looking for information that you would at a P5 school.

Teams don't provide information in public forums about athlete injuries for the most part. No reason to do that for a number of reasons including privacy.
