Muldrow Football Player Recovering

Freshman running back for the Muldrow football team, Jake Hope, who was injured at a scrimmage Thursday, is at home recovering.  Steve Page, High School Principal, said "He went to make a tackle, dove for the running back and somebody came across and their   knee hit his head, which caused his neck to jar.  He was numb, lost feeling in his left side."

A helicopter landed on the 50-yard line moments later to take him to a Tulsa hospital.  There were indications that Hope was going to be alright even before the helicopter arrived.  How- ever, they transported him so that he could be checked out.  According to doctors, Hope re- ceived a stinger, or a nerve-pinch injury.  He was expected to return to school and football Monday, August 31.
