Good story by the Statesman. She's a great gal and I know if anyone can fully recover from this, it's Katie.

We all miss her on the court, but I'm definitely glad she's okay.

You're absolutely right. You hear coaches say "there are some things more important than basketball (or football or whatever" ... this obviously is one of those cases. I love watching Katie shoot the ball, but I also love the joy she seemed to get when she played. Sounds like she's well on her way to recovery. Here's to a long and healthy life for a truly great Mustang.
