Joe Wolfinger lost to broken foot

Looks like the Huskies still can't get a break this offseason. Wait, they are having too many breaks. Another player has suffered a broken foot and will be lost for an extended period of time.

Joe Wolfinger, a 7 foot center, experienced pain in his foot two weeks ago. After being told to rest, the condition did not improve, and Wolfinger was told that he would be lost from the line-up for part, to almost all of the upcoming year. This is very upsetting news to any Husky B-ball fan who was excited about having a tall presence inside that could back up Spencer Hawes.

From the PI -
"Wolfinger came to the UW from a prep school, Mount Herman in Northfield, Mass., after playing his high school ball in Beaverton, Ore. He was regarded as a fairly significant recruiting catch, choosing the Huskies over Cincinnati and Georgia Tech, among others."

Read about it in the PI http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/cbasketball/287085_umen30.html.

Sounds like Wolfinger needs to go get prayer techniques from Shaun Alexander. Perhaps then he will be ready to play when practice starts in 12 days.
