Quarterback Garrett Krstich, who started four of the 10 games in which he played in 2014, had surgery Monday to repair three tears in the labrum in his right (throwing) shoulder. He said the surgery was successful, and that he intends to be ready to work out with his teammates in the springs the Mustangs learn the new systems implemented by new head coach Chad Morris and his staff. Whether he will be able to practice in the spring, and if so, how much, remains to be seen. He said he knew he faced offseason surgery, and played despite the pain in his shoulder.
His rehabilitation program begins next week.
Krstich and Matt Davis tied for the team lead with 855 passing yards in 2014. He completed 99 of 181 passes, threw seven interceptions and a pair of touchdowns. The junior from Carlsbad, Calif., also rushed 40 times for 81 yards.
