Trey Adams appreciates all the people who knew he’d be back.
As well as the doctor who didn’t.
Long story short, the 6-foot-8, 306-pound Washington senior and 2016 first-team all-Pac-12 selection missed 16 consecutive games across two seasons with a torn ACL and a bulging disk in his back. The Wenatchee product returned for the final four games of the 2018 season, even starting in both the Pac-12 championship game victory over Utah and the Rose Bowl loss to Ohio State.
To be clear, the previous paragraph doesn’t adequately describe the daily pain and determination that made Adams’ comeback possible.
