International tournaments and injuries?

In past years the Pilots progress to ultimate triumph has been thwarted by inconvenient "distractions" like having three top players (whom I christened the three amigas) spirited away to international duty.

I don't think that there are any such problems this year. Correct?

And what of injuries? Kendra C appeared back to 100% in the spring games and has featured in U23 camps so hope all is well there. Kelsey D got whacked upside the head in a U23 game and has a broken jaw? How is she doing? Hallie DeY is a an able cover at GK and is probably keen to start a game or two after sitting out the entire season.

And the popular Kassie McC had back surgery and missed spring. Will she be ready to go in the fall? I was very impressed with Kassie last season but also rate Michelle O very highly. I'd expect coaches to make sure that Kassie takes her time given expectations that MO and Cloee C will be stalwart pairing at center of defense.

Anyone close to campus have any early intelligence?

I saw Kelsey, Kassi, Keelin and Elli together on campus yesterday. All appeared fit and healthy...

How's Kelsey's jaw?

Kelsey's jaw is wired shut following surgery a couple of weeks ago. I think they said 6 -8 weeks recovery.

Kassi is still recovering and last I heard hadn't be cleared to start workouts yet.

Hopefully both will be back sometime during the first part of the season.

Thanks for the update.
