"Fractured" equals "broken" and it's that way every time I hear it. Now, sometimes they specify "hairline fracture," which is different than a "standard" fracture.
I wouldn't expect a middle school player to be playing with even a hairline fracture, though. If he was playing, I doubt it was fractured. Most likely, it was a sprain.
How did you hear it was "broken?" It seems they were trying to make you feel worse about it.
