Description
A southern Indiana football player is recovering after suffering a "serious injury" during a game Friday night.
South Spencer athletics says sophomore lineman JaQuar Johnson sustained a "suspected head and/or neck injury" during the team's Oct. 10 game at North Central Farmersburg. Due to the nature of the injury, Johnson was airlifted by helicopter to Riley Hospital for Children in Indianapolis.
In an update released the next day on Oct. 11, South Spencer said Johnson is in stable condition at Riley Hospital and that he has feeling and movement in all of his extremities. Initial diagnostic imaging came back negative for a major injury, the athletics department said.
