The No. 3 Ole Miss baseball team received an update on the status of Tim Elko’s injury on Tuesday, but it may not be a season-ending prognosis.
Elko suffered a knee injury during the fourth inning of the Rebels 20-6 win over North Alabama on Monday on what started out as a routine groundout but became potentially catastrophic for the Ole Miss captain.
While dodging out of the way of North Alabama first baseman who was diving after an errant throw, Elko seemed to tweak his right knee as it buckled. Elko crumpled to the ground behind the first base bag immediately.
