It's Monday and the Devils are back to work. For Ryan Fitzgerald, its a little bittersweet. A sophomore, Fitz was one of the most improved players this fall and was planning to compete for a starting position at catcher and DH. Unfortunately, he won't be playing this year. During the winter break, he tore his ACL and is done for the year.
However, Fitz has made every practice and has participated to any extent he can. He spent this morning coaching the other catchers and throwing balls for blocking drills, etc. standing on his good leg. He has also been to the trainer everyday and is doing what he needs to do to rehab the injury.
Today, he was given the Hammer for his positive outlook. Congrats, Fitz.
