"VanHoose High School Career Over"

[ACE]

To keep any rumors from running wild, I just spoke to an authortative source and got the word that the ACL injury to the knee is serious enough to end JV's high school career. Really sad for a great kid and his family as well as the Russell faithful. Best wishes to the VanHoose family. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Hate to see this happen to anyone, but seems more magnified at tournament time of the young man's senior year.

[HOMELESS CAMEL]

Well I certainly hope he can recover and get ready for basketball season next year at Evansville.

[BogeyMan]

What a great player with a great career in our Region. I wish him nothing but the best in his recovery and future at Evansville.

I couldn't possibly feel worse for a kid than I do right now.

Sure wish he could have had a post season past the districts, looked forward to watching him and his teammates. Here's to a speedy recovery and speaking from experience, you'll be surprised how well you will recover to have a fine collegiate career. Nothing better than youth on your side. Best wishes from spindoc and crew.:thumb:

This is a tough loss for Russell. Good luck on rehab.

Sad ending to a brilliant Career, I wish him a speedy recovery and the best at Evansville. Russell is no longer my favorite to win the 16th, what a blow this is for them.

A great player who was a joy to watch in action in the 16th Region. My heart goes out to him and his family. Prayers & best wishes for a speedy and complete recovery!

I feel for this kid, thats very sad news. I've never been a Russell fan but I always made sure I got on here or checked the paper to see how many points he had. He's a great shooter.I was looking forward to seeing him make another run at a regional title. Hope the surgery and recovery goes well for him.

[Tiger1]

Very sorry to hear this about him. He is a excellent basketball player and I am sure he will recover and have a great career at Evansville. Best of luck to him.
