She said she heard a pop. She fell to the ground immediately.
"Oh yeah, I knew something was wrong with it," Tomczyk said. "I just waited there until someone came to get me off the field."
An MRI later showed that Tomczyk had a torn anterior cruciate ligament in her knee, and she needed surgery to repair it, effectively ending her junior season.
After a year of rehabbing her knee and strengthening and conditioning, Tomczyk is back on the field with the Cougars as she and her teammates vie for another District 2 Class AA title. To read more, click here.
