Kromer Wrestling Star Injured. Hospitilized After accident
Ryan Kromer, GCHS wrestler and football standout, sustained leg lacerations and internal injuries but avoided broken bones after a serious incident. He underwent hip surgery and is out of ICU at St Catherine Hospital, with severe pain yet alert and visited by friends. Coach Mike Smith and Segovia praise his resolve and expect him to stay involved with the team while focusing on recovery, with possible return to wrestling but football likely ruled out this fall. Kromer has been a key defensive leader and had been tipped as a state title favorite.
