Excerpt from Maria Cornelius's Scout column...
| Quote: |
Cait McMahan and Angie Bjorklund were on the way to church Wednesday when they collided with a car on Alcoa Highway. Summitt was on the way home and came across the accident scene. She stopped she said she saw her players outside the car and realized right away that everyone was OK.
Nobody was hurt in either vehicle Summitt said the players were not at fault in the wreck and Bjorklund, who is cleared to play Friday, and McMahan made it to church afterwards. McMahan is taking a redshirt year this season to rehab her knee.
Summitt continued home to prepare to leave Thursday for Nashville. She was taking out the trash, accompanied by her dog, Sally Sue, when they encountered a very large raccoon on the back deck. The raccoon and the dog began to tangle, and Summitts first instinct was to protect her pet.
Summitt delivered a forearm shiver to the raccoon, knocking it well off the deck, but she dislocated her right shoulder in the process and had to be treated by the Lady Vols team physician, Dr. Rebecca Morgan.
Im fine, Summitt said. Its just sore. |

The mental picture that this line creates is just hilarious to me

I can just see it going flying...I've seen her when she gets mad, and I'm sure there was definitely some strength behind that shove:)
Here's hoping that Pat's shoulder gets better as soon as possible, because the NCAAs are stressful enough for coaches without them having to worry about residual injuries from fending off a raccoon _________________ "Taurasi has boundless energy and is still -- even during the national anthem, she is bouncing side-to-side. She frowned when informed that she was actually a calming influence with her words. "I say it in a fiery way, though," the Phoenix Mercury guard said."
