“Mentally, I wasn’t really prepared for it, because I thought the recovery would be a lot quicker than it was. It ended up with me being out for five months, and it was supposed to be a six to eight-week recovery. I think for anyone, that would take a toll on you.”

“Now I’m getting back into things, but I’m still not where I think I need to be. Before my injury, in mostly every game I played, I didn’t have a feeling of being completely finished. “But in the couple of games that I’ve come back into, at the end of them I’d just felt completely done.”
