After tearing his ACL during his senior year of high school, and dealing with other injuries along the way, sophomore Christian Negron said he’s feeling healthy and ready for the 2018-19 men’s basketball season.
An advertising/public relations major, Negron appeared in 17 games last season, averaging 1 point and 0.8 rebounds per game.
The ACL injury made him miss the first three games of last season, but he sprained his ankle during warmups Dec. 16 before a game against University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee—setting him back once again. He said although he thinks about his various injuries, they don’t affect his court mentality of playing fearless.
