The Woodstock Independent reports:
Just before Christmas break, the Marian Central
Catholic High School girls basketball team lost an integral member of
its roster for the season. Junior point guard Robin Wenzel injured her
right knee against Woodstock in the Northern Illinois Holiday Classic
Dec. 17. Wenzel was concerned she had torn her ACL but, after surgery
was completed Jan. 19, doctors informed her she had only torn her
meniscus and sprained her ACL. Rehabilitation will take four to weeks.
“I feel pretty good,” Wenzel said. “I was happy it wasn’t my ACL. We weren’t sure going into the surgery.”
Marian head coach Jackie Budmayr said the team misses its point guard.
“You really miss her speed,” Budmayr said. “She makes everybody better on the floor.”
Senior Amanda Salvi has taken over at point guard, and Budmayr is happy with her performance.
“Amy has stepped in and done really well,” Budmayr said.
Besides her basketball prowess, Wenzel is a standout on the
soccer field. She played a big role at forward and center midfield for
the Lady ’Canes soccer team that finished second in state last spring.
The prognosis for her knee means she should be back for most, if not
all, of the soccer season which starts at the end of March.
