An update from Northwestern Coach Dom Wren late tonight (thanks, Dom! ... abbreviated a bit for the sake of posting):
Mohit Gupta, 16 years old senior from NHS, suffered a broken tibia and fibula early in the second half of last night's Palmetto Cup. He will have surgery later today (12 April). Mohit, last year's recipient of the SC Young Doctor of the Year award, will attend USC next year.
On behalf of Mohit and the staff at Northwestern HS, thanks go out to the medical staff at The Cage for their prompt and thorough care. In addition, thank you to the players, coaches and supporters of Irmo High School for their show of class and compassion throughout the injury time.
We wish this outstanding young man a quick and full recovery from this injury, and all the best in his future endeavors.
Quote: Last we heard, unofficially and overheard from a parent who was heading to Palmetto Richland, it was believed that he had fractured his leg. He appeared to be as OK as one could be given the circumstances.
Quote: I hope that Mohit is ok...any updates on him?
