A terrible way to end what was an All-Big 12 First Team season, end her college career, and Kristy Wallace will not also miss the NCAA Tournament.
Kristy Wallace tears ACL, ending college career
Hopefully she can come back better and stronger.
Absolutely gutted for this young girl, great attitude and will be key part of the Opals in the future. Best wishes for a speedy and thorough recovery
Listening to her coach , I really hope she's sensible and doesn’t try to play on that knee, more to her career than college basketball , but by the sounds of it her coach won’t stop her from playing

Shes done her ACL , she cant play. Wont play for a year at least.
Whats interesting is that when she graduates in May who pays for the rehab which will be ongoing for the next year.
Does Baylor cover the costs for treatment in Australia or is she on her own given that her scholarship (and Insurance) will cease when she graduates.
Tough kid though she will bounce back.
Baylor are gone for the year without Wallace she was the smarts of the Baylor offense.

Muggins did you listen to the interview with her coach, where she gloats how she's had players who have played for her WITH an ACL njury , just to complete finals.....these college coaches don’t care about the players only about getting the wins because that ensures their job for the following years.
Can you please post a link to that interview if you have it?
