I've always wondered what a stress fracture really is? Now I know! :cool:

A stress fracture occurs when there is an incomplete crack in the bone. The injury typically develops over time and occurs as extended practice and overuse places undue stress on the bone, eventually causing a small crack or fracture to develop.

Dang..so both her and Seth. The article says 4 to 12 weeks to heal, her injury is past its due date. That blows for her and the team. I know the trainers and coaches will be smart and not push her to play, we will need her healthy for a happy ending to this season.

The article says Chloe and Richa are also injured -- does anyone know when they're expected back? And what about Amber? Will she be able to play anytime soon?
