Very sad. She is one of the most prominent faces of the women's game right now. Some of the NCAA women's tourney luster has diminished.
Yes. We have to do something about deceleration injuries. Deceleration or stopping

I have watched this play from two angles. It appears to me she got knocked down by a player running into her from the side which caused her to fall and injure herself. However, the LA Times and AP call it a "non-contact" injury. Am I missing something?
