Kristine Best out for the season

The Poughkeepsie Journal reports:

Marist College women’s basketball head coach Brian Giorgis confirmed Wednesday that Kristine Best, a senior guard on the Red Foxes’ women’s team tore her left anterior cruciate ligament at practice earlier this week, an injury that will likely sideline her for the remainder of the 2011-12 season.

“She’s out for the year,’’ Giorgis said. “She’s trying to set up an appointment with The Hospital for Special Surgeries (in Manhattan) and we’ll apply for a medical redshirt. Hopefully, we’ll have her back next year.’’

The injury occurred on Monday, and the Red Foxes received the final diagnosis late Tuesday.

On crutches, Best was one of several Marist women’s players who attended Wednesday’s men’s basketball game between the Red Foxes and the Army Black Knights at McCann Arena.
