Sarah Dumitrescu suffers season-ending knee injury

For a second-straight year, Sarah Dumitrescu’s basketball season was cut short due to injury.

The redshirt freshman guard suffered a knee injury late in Ole Miss’s game against Alcorn State on Tuesday. Further diagnosis and evaluation revealed Dumitrescu had torn her ACL in her left knee, ending her season not even three full games in.

Last year, the Bucharest, Romania native injured her right knee seven games into her true freshman season, which forced her to miss the remainder of the Rebels’ 2019-20 campaign. Dumitrescu was awarded a medical hardship waiver by the SEC for last season.
