Ashley Santos out for the year

The Chicago Tribune reports:

Geneva senior Ashley Santos is likely out for the season with a torn ACL in her right knee, Vikings coach Sarah Meadows said Wednesday.

Santos, a Marquette recruit, went down with the injury Saturday while playing defense during a victory against Lincoln-Way East. She has not had an MRI because doctors are waiting for the swelling in her knee to go down, but Meadows said doctors were "99 percent sure" it was a torn ACL.


Santos' sister, sophomore Sidney Santos, suffered ACL tears at the beginning of each of the last two seasons.

"(Ashley's) basketball career is just starting," Meadows said. "She has four years at Marquette, and she's just a determined kid. This is a little setback. Like she said, 'I'll be stronger.' "
