Any news on Nelly Mc injury?

acl...out for season ,,,,,guessing this is early enough to qualify for another red-shirt season, I am not sure. She red-shirted her first year. I took it that was because she wouldn't have gotten to play much.

Thanks! I was afraid of that.

I've read that she's too far into the season to get a regular red shirt but I believe she can appeal for a medical red shirt. Probably something everyone already knew though, but just in case!

Feel so bad for Nelly, this is her second major injury in three seasons

So her freshmen season redshirt was an injury? Thought it was intentional. Darn. Hope she is able to come back
strong and stay healthy. That has to be a bit demoralizing.
Anyway, thanks for clarifying.

yeah her freshman season she had shoulder surgery and before the day she blew her ACL she'd had a tender shoulder so i thought they were giving her rest, then they played her and she tore her ACL, so just seems like really, really bad luck for Nelly. She's such a great player, it's so hard to watch her go through that.

So Gauchino has given up TWO 2-run home runs in the first two innings of the game to Auburn and we are down 1-4. Exactly like Lowry did yesterday against them. This does not bode well moving forward for when we play a team with an elite pitcher and our bats can't make up these deficits.

Since this post she's given up another home run we are down 1-5 at the bottom of the third. Dayton starts the ending off with a double... Let's go!

Pickering hit a two-run homer to bring them home but Wells left stranded on third base. Down 3-5 going into the 4th. If we could go one inning without allowing them to hit a home run that would be a good start!

Pulled away, winning 8-5!! Hope to see some sharper pitching tomorrow to start the game!

34 mph wind from north with gusts to 50 or 55 mph. Not being able to hit HRs may hurt them worse than us.
