Monarca comp

Postby oj » Tue Jan 22, 2008 9:08 am

I was reading through some blogs on the comp down in Valle and this jumped out at me:

"Not sure why the goal is in the place it is because its all rotor. Riss Estes came in to goal and got trashed and ended up breaking his arm or wrist in the process."

Very sorry to learn of this and hope Riss has a full and speedy recovery. OJ.

He had surgery today on 4 broken bones in his wrist. He's for the most part
okay except for his wrist, bumps and bruises. He may be back here tomorrow
or the next day and then he'll be going home.
