Twitter post from Coach KatieB/F:
Is that Aleah in a walking boot again, or is she using an old picture there?
(I am thinking the latter, since I don't see any of our frosh in the picture, and who wouldn't want to be in on a picture with GPII?)
Go Beavers!

That does not look good. It looks like Arizona on the field and in KK's pictures it shows a ticket from Saturday.

I was counting on Aleah to be our backup point guard behind Destiny, although of course she could also play shooting guard. However, if her physical condition can't be relied upon, that would mean Pivec (or maybe Jasmine?) would once again have to spend time training at the PG spot, which would detract from her effectiveness in other roles. Hope this is just a temporary setback. |

Go Beavers! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The photo was taken this past Saturday. Yes. Aleah is in a boot again. She had surgery on her foot following the end of her freshman season. She has been running and doing drills with the team during the summer. Hopefully, the boot is simply precautionary and intended to remind her to rest her foot whenever possible. She has been training with the team. |

Jazz Simmons was wearing one as well at the VB game on Sunday. Nike footwear sucks.

Thanks for the update bhf..
Aleah's boot is a reminder of how good the Beavs have had it the past few seasons as far as injuries go....I cannot remember a season ending injury in the past several seasons....
Gulich marched thru her career pretty much injury free; so did Sydney.
Pivec, Tudor, McWilliams have not been hit with the injury bug. So the Beavs have that going for them....
I mention this in a more than casual way because Women BB players are more prone than men to knee injuries, especially ACL tears. I don't have the data at my finger tips as I did in the past, but it is available for those who want to check it out...
If Aleah has been running with the team during pre-season drills, it's hard for me to imagine her injury being all that serous at this moment- but that doesn't mean it can't get worse on short notice!
It's not October yet, so I don't know what would keep her off the floor in November if it's not re-injured....
I'm just taking out loud here.....Not enough to do...Obviously, I have no first-hand info on why she's wearing that boot....
GO BEAVS !!

Jazz Simmons was wearing one as well at the VB game on Sunday. Nike footwear sucks. The Simmons injury is related to an ankle that got tweaked playing in an open gym scrimmage with her teammates on Friday. Hopefully, the boot treatment for Simmons was likewise precautionary. Here's to hoping that the boots for Aleah and Jazz won't be needed this week. Fall team practices are coming soon. |
