Someone on another site asked for the status of the numerous OU players and recruits with ACL injuries. Thought I'd copy it here.
The following are from the Player Bios on the Official OU Site. (comments in parentheses)
Antoinette Wadsworth - Coming off of an ACL injury she suffered last October ... is expected to see playing time at the No. 3 or 4 position ... best athlete OU has in the weight room ... an extremely athletic player who is incredibly explosive and quick ... has the best vertical jump on the team, even after an ACL injury ... is explosive around the rim ... has great potential.
Erin Higgins - A guard whose forte is shooting the three, has an uncanny range from beyond the arc ... brings a positive and determined attitude to the court ... missed the spring and summer conditioning workouts due to an ACL injury in January, 2002 (I hear she's been lighting it up in fall pick-up games).
Laura Andrews - Will provide OU with quality depth at the guard position ... is a great shooter who is clever at creating her shots ... has been relentless in rehab ... missed the spring and summer conditioning workouts due to an ACL injury in March, 2002. (My understanding is that she has only recently been cleared to play.)
Casey Walker - Will redshirt this season after suffering an ACL injury in July ... has been presented a great opportunity to study the game and focus on getting stronger ... size and strength will be an added bonus next season.
Kendra Moore - Not listed on the OU Roster of course, since she's just a high school senior this year. Her injury was this summer, so it is expected that she will miss most or all of her senior year.
