And researchers have found True® Exercise Bike troubling rates of osteoarthritis 10 to 15 years after an A.C.L. is torn. Professional Grade Exercise Bikes. Choose from Recumbent or Upright! “This is more than a sports medicine problem,” said Dr. Edward Wojtys, the www.truefitness.com director of sports medicine at the University of Michigan. “It’s becoming a public health problem.” A number of coaches and trainers have criticized youth development in sports, where far more attention is paid to winning and athletic skills than to injury prevention. Auriemma and other coaches also wonder whether girls are reinforcing poor biomechanical behavior by specializing in a sport too soon. Jenny Moshak, the trainer for women’s basketball at Tennessee, said: “If we want to turn this situation from an epidemic to something else, we really need to hit the youth sports when they are in their motor-development phases. The habits they come in with are very difficult to change.” Doty first tore her A.C.L. while playing soccer as a high school senior in the fall of 2007; when a teammate passed her the ball, she turned, and an opponent slid into her knee. On Jan. 27, 2009, during her freshman season at UConn, Doty drove for a layup against Syracuse and landed awkwardly, a typical way that women tear the ligament, often without making contact with another player. Last August, while practicing one-on-one moves, Doty drove for a left-handed layup and felt her left knee shift when she landed. The A.C.L. was 80 percent torn, she said, and a third operation was required. A cadaver tendon had been used for the second operation, Doty said, “and my body never really took it in; it never really healed, wasn’t really strong.” A graft from the patellar tendon in her right knee was used for the third operation, she said. Some studies indicate that cadaver tendons used to reconstruct the knees of young, active athletes are up to four times more likely to fail than tendons grafted from their own bodies, said Trojian. The reason, in part, is that athletes often feel better more quickly after a cadaver graft and are more likely to return to full activity before their bodies and the graft have reached full strength, Trojian said. After that third operation in late summer, Doty spent three months regaining range of motion in the knee, strength and neuromuscular control. At four months, she began running. 1 2 NEXT PAGE » A version of this article appeared in print on March 27, 2011, on page SP2 of the New York edition. Connect with The New York Times on Facebook.

  • 2013 Connecticut State Register and Manual Dedication
    A Tragedy Like No Other Friday December 14th will never be the same. For on that day in 2012 —in just a matter of minutes— the worst nightmare of every parent in the world was realized at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown. The magic of the holiday season and the joys of school celebrations on an otherwise quiet yet busy morning were shattered in a hail of bullets. As students and teachers ran for cover into classrooms and closets, 26 innocent souls were methodically gunned down. Their killing had no purpose; but their lives, tragically ending before their time, fill our hearts with meaning. Yet, though it might not be any comfort to us and the families of the victims, we are forced to admit that we may never know why the deranged individual responsible for the massacre pulled the trigger so many times with seeming disregard and contempt for human life. In every town, city, state and country we send our children off to school in the morning into the care of compassionate adults who help them grow and learn, nurture the students yet demand their best, and help their young minds develop; never thinking that this is the last we would ever see them alive. The heart knows no pain greater than the mother or father who must bury their own child. It is a loss that—as a parent—you may learn to live with, but you never truly get over. And we are also renewed with a deep appreciation for the adults—mostly women at the elementary school setting—who dedicate years of their lives to educate these innnocent, brave and beautiful children; teaching them not only how to read, write, add and subtract but how to love and respect each other, their parents, their siblings, and how to live in a community.
