My coach told me today that he had heard a rumor that Pat Banks from Larue broke his hand during football. If so how bad is it, and when will he come back???
Patrick Banks?????

It's true, spiral fracture of the fourth metcarpal on the right hand. It was in the News Enterprise so it's not a secret. He is presently in a cast for possibly 4-6 weeks depending on how it heals. He apparently broke his hand on a Washington County face mask after they had scored a TD (you can use your imagination on that one!). Pat's really disappointed since he needs around 48 victories this year to pass Joe Carr Jrs. career win record and this may prevent that from happening. Aside from that, he's healthy, tough and hardheaded so I only expect him to be out a minimal amount of time and I'm sure that he will wrestle just as soon as he feels he's ready. In the meantime, he will play defense only against Western tomorrow night and if we can win that one, I'm sure he'll play against Mercer U. next Friday. We would greatly appreciate all your prayers for a fast and good healing.
good luck with that Pat...get better soon
Hope everything goes well for him, I'm sure he will come back at 100%.
did they win?
did they win?
Yep! We upset (mild upset) Western 28-26. Travel to Mercer this Friday to play the Titans (give me a break). Gonna be tough to beat the #1 team in 2A (or 3A for that matter) on their home field, but we'll see what happens.
Pappy, I do believe Mercer U would qualify as a 4A team.
I'm a Pat Banks fan, get well soon. I'm sure he'll be fine and go on to win his state title! (just make it 152:)
Pat your a great wrestler, hope you get well soon. Are you planning on wrestling 152 this year? :-D
