When Katie Lou Samuelson went down awkwardly on a rebound in the season opener against Cal, she instantly knew something wasn’t right.
“I sprain this ankle a lot and usually just get up and walk and after a couple steps it’s fine,” she said. “Coach knows that, [athletic trainer Janelle Francisco] knows that, so nobody was sending in a sub or having a trainer run over because I usually walk it off but it felt different than a normal sprain.”
Samuelson made a beeline for the bench with a bad limp and quickly went into the locker room.
