Prayers for UofL's Kevin Ware tonight

‎03-31-2013 08:06 PM

During the UofL/Duke Elite 8 game, UofL guard Kevin Ware was carried off the court after badly injuring his lower right leg during the Midwest Regional final currently being played on CBS.

He has suffered a tib-fib fracture, with 90+ degree angulation. Trainers immediately covered the leg with a towel and placed Ware on a backboard, then lifted him onto a stretcher. Teammates huddled around Ware as he left the court. They were clearly upset when the injury, embracing each other and crying. Coach Rick Pitino wiped tears from his eyes.

The injury occurred with 6:33 left in the first half as Duke's Tyler Thornton made a 3-pointer to get the Blue Devils within 21-20. Ware tried to contest the shot and his leg buckled when he landed. Some Louisville fans began chanting his name as he was put on the stretcher. {#emotions_dlg.crying} It was absoutely horrible and gruesome to see.

The BBN & the BBN-South will be praying for Kevin, his family, and for both teams (Louisville and Duke) from tonight's game. Hang in there guys, and Go CARDS!
