Reply to "Catcher Elbow Throwing Injury (formerly Tricep Injury)"

My kid is in the OR getting a screw placed in his elbow and UCL repair. Unfortunately even with improve throwing mechanics, the increase in velocity achieved by HS players will result in more throwing related injuries. He dinged his throwing lever during run and guns, a warning to those with kids with throwing issues. He is going to miss his final HS season which he was fine with given they are not going beyond the region to compete so they will most likely win their "league", unlike their nationally ranked lacrosse team which they play nationally to find the best competition for their players. If all goes well he will be ready to play in the college wood bat league in June and more importantly restore his confidence in throwing again. Happy Thanksgivong everyone and safe travels.
