After a little delay for them to dress quickly, the V crew hit to floor to work 3-man with my partner.

Of course, it turned out to be a 2-point game decided by last-second free throws.

The doc says no games for at least a week, and take Nabumetone twice daily, while putting heat to the area. Could be worse, but man, do I hate crutches.
Take care of yourself! I was reffing an Alumni game a while ago and one of the guys ripped his Achilles Tendon in half!! Ouch!!!!! 6 months recovery, guy was under 30.
