(Des Moines, IA) – Drake University senior Nick Norton’s knee injury suffered in Wednesday night’s game at Evansville will force the guard to miss the remainder of the 2018-19 season, head men’s basketball coach Darian DeVries announced Friday.
Norton suffered an injury to his left knee late in the first half of the Drake men’s basketball team’s double-overtime loss at Evansville while driving to the basket.
Norton’s injury was evaluated Thursday and following an MRI, team physicians determined Norton tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee.
Surgery to repair the ligament will be performed at a date to be determined.
