Update on USJ Player

[Rebelwithoutapplause]

Yesterday afternoon senior OF for USJ Hunter Garrett had surgery to

repair a lower intestinal tear . Surgery went very well and he will be

in the hospital for 4-5 more days. Please keep Hunter and family

in your prayers. The trauma MD said he usually sees this type of injury in a car wreck when someone hits the steering wheel at about 70 miles an hour.

The injury was caused from a collison with another teammate W. Wallace.

Both where in full speed and stride when the collison occurred. Wallace is sore but no major injuries to him. Hunter will be out for 6 weeks. Once again please keep Hunter in your prayers.

Hunter is one of the finest young men I've ever known. This is a shame. He was playing at a high enough level that D-1 schools including LSU were looking at him. A sad time for the USJ family!!!

This doesnt mean his baseball career is over. This wont be the last you hear from Hunter. The fact that he could be back in 6 weeks from an injury of this severity is phenominal. Get well soon Hunter!!!

Considering the shape Hunter is in he may surprise everyone and be back this season. Let's hope and pray for a full recovery first of all and if in time to play again this year it would be an added blessing.

Always bad when these injuries occur, especially in your senior season.
