Egwu on the mend
|
From HQ recruiting blogger Cody Westerlund:
Injuries are never a good thing, but there might just be a silver lining to the surgery that Illini commit Nnanna Egwu had on the herniated disc in his back.
According to St. Ignatius Prep coach Rich Kehoe, Egwu might be blessed with better lateral quickness than before following his recovery from surgery that took place on Aug. 17.
"Our therapist thinks he's running pretty well and that he could get a lot better with a little more flexibility," Kehoe said. "Muscular flexibility would help him out. He's been pretty much a straight-up runner, but now the therapist he's working with thinks he can get him a lot more lateral quickness and speed."
