Former Saint Mary's College basketball player Brad Waldow, who was at the Brussels airport Tuesday morning when two bombs killed at least 34 people, said he won't quickly recover from the experience.

"You never feel that kind of fear and pandemonium rush through your body like I did," Waldow said.A senior on the Gaels' basketball team last season, Waldow, 24, plays professionally for the Port of Antwerp Giants. He and his teammates were at Zaventem Airport, awaiting a flight to Milan, Italy, for the FIBA Euro Cup tournament."The only thing I could really say is it was truly surreal," Waldow said.
