I am the coach of the Gamers 97 team and yes our catcher is doing great. It looked very very bad at the moment it happened, the EMT on the scence said it was a dislocated Patella in her right knee, after a few hours at Hemet Valley Hospital they reset her patella, she has no ligament damage and she will be in a brace and on crutches for a couple of weeks and will just miss a few weeks. The EMT's and fire crew that responded did a great job , along with a few fans who happened to be a nurse and a fire captain who did a tremendous job in controlling the situation until the EMT's arrived. Also a big thank you to Coach Torres of Fury 96 who also was very helpful and supportive during the process, a true class act team. Our player is a very driven and team oriented young lady and her major concern was not for her knee, but who was going to catch and when she could play again, its players like her that make coaching softball a true blessing. Thanks for everyones concerns and thanks Rick and Sean for a terrfic tournament.
