ESPN reports:
USC senior guard Jacki Gemelos, once the top high school recruit in the
country and a current nominee for the Naismith Award as women's college
basketball's best player, has torn the anterior cruciate ligament in her
left knee.
It is the fourth time she has torn the ACL in her knees and the fifth time she will have an ACL reconstruction surgery.
Although
she will miss the rest of USC's season, which effectively ends her
college career, she vowed Tuesday that her career is not over.
"I'm
not done. I can't walk away like this. I won't walk away like this,"
Gemelos told ESPNLosAngeles.com. "I feel like I have so much more to
give. I'm only 23. I'm not ready to hang it up. I'm ready to get my
surgery done and get my rehab going and then shock the world."
