UPDATED: Kathryn Mahoney's Condition

As reported earlier, MSU's Kathryn Mahoney suffered a recent spinal injury.  It is now reported that she remains paralyzed from the neck down, but there is hope that she will continue to regain some function according to published reports.  Our thoughts are with Kathryn, her family and her team.

Those interested in making a contribution to her support fund can donate via several methods outlined in the link below.  You can also send her your well wishes to her rehabilitation facility in Chicago.
