All I have to say about this is that was Bert Smith that had an episode at the Regional Final last year where he was carted off and found out some health issues that resulted in him passing out during a game. Got a chance to meet him last year at a camp and all I care about is his health. He was an incredibly sweet person when I met him and how he treated those that he did not originally know. Glad that this was the only way he was involved and not hurt.

Peace

Never met him but have heard similar, i.e. that’s he’s one of the nicer human beings you’ll ever meet. Can’t help but root for him and be happy to see how quickly he recovered.

It turns out that the event last year may have saved his life. He had an unknown underlying condition that, had it not manifested so publicly, might have been suddenly fatal later, especially if the setting had been more private. Being carted off that court was the best thing that ever happened to him.
