Yay! Nicole is back playing!

[PageMan]

Yes, play4keeps, Nicole Smith is back after a couple of injuries had her sidelined since the Choo Choo Tournament. She suffered a slight dislocation of her left knee cap on Fri., Sept. 7 when she landed wrong after a kill. After she went to the doctor about that injury, it was discovered that she had suffered a concussion in a collision with another Page player 2 or 3 weeks previously. She had been complaining of headaches, dizzyness, and unstable balance, but the condition went undiagnosed until a subsequent doctor finally detected the problem. Page Coach Mindy Stone wanted to make sure that she was ok before returning her to the lineup, but when I saw Nicole dressed last night before the match with Spring Hill, it was a good sign. I asked Coach Stone if Nicole was going to play and she said she would see how Nicole looked in warm-ups before using her in the match. I thought she looked good in warm-ups, but she did not play in the 1st game and I became concerned again. Nicole did start game 2 and Coach Stone took her out after a few points to check her condition. Nicole returned mid-way through the 2nd game and finished strongly. Her play was equally good in game 3 and she should be in top form for Page's next match on Mon., Sept. 24 with county rival Independence.
