WVB: Leilah Smith on crutches - mbdude - 10-12-2020

Smith on crutches per her Instagram, and Volleytalk - no details.


RE: WVB: Leilah Smith on crutches - eb388 - 10-13-2020

The Instagram comments mentioned knee surgery I believe


RE: WVB: Leilah Smith on crutches - BobK - 10-13-2020

I don’t see any reference to an injury abd the comments don’t mention one

If surgery needed and with Vicini in a boot having a chronic foot injury, that pushes 6'2" freshman Anabelle Smith into the starting line-up.  This spring is looking like a rebuilding season to me.

Does anyone know if they are practicing indoors or outdoors?  I played on a surface of volleyball panels laid out on a tennis court.  I didn't like it.  It's not as flat and consistent as an indoor court.

With the season still 3 months away I wouldn’t worry at this point.
Stanford was practicing a month ago on those pads on the Stanford tennis courts and stopped and moved to the rugby field after just a couple of days.

Let me offer some positive news (and a thread hijack) to direct you to a Stanford Daily podcast interview with Meghan McClure. She talks about the team practicing together down in San Diego.

Looking at her Instagram, she definitely had knee surgery.   If it is ligament she won't be playing this spring.

Thanks for posting.  It sounds like they are practicing indoors at a club facility.  She said the situation in San Diego is "less than ideal".   When will Santa Clara allow indoor practices to start.

Re Smith, unfortunately true. You have to dig through secondary comments and replies.
Didn't say what knee surgery was for.


RE: WVB: Leilah Smith on crutches - Softball Fan - 10-15-2020

Stanford WVB is usually quite secretive about injuries.  Bobbk will you be able to find out about her injury and estimated return date.   If Stanford had her available the end of the spring season, there's a chance they could do well in the NCAA tournament.

HIPPA is a law Palo Alto. Not just for VB.
No I can't but I will be part of Hambly's zoom on Monday
My submitted question was where is Formico? I didn't add is she anti mask also. :)


RE: WVB: Leilah Smith on crutches - BostonCard - 10-15-2020

Coaches are not considered "covered entities" and thus not bound by HIPAA (note spelling).  That being said, we should nonetheless try to respect the private medical information of our players.  I have no issues with coaches keeping mum on injuries.

HIPAA
Nevertheless I’ve gone to probably over a thousand chalk talks where a coach has said I can't comment


RE: WVB: Leilah Smith on crutches - mbdude - 10-15-2020

Forgot about Formico. Fidelak did mention in her video only 3 upperclass this year - her, Holly, and Meagan

It might actually have more to do with FERPA than HIPAA.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Family_Educational_Rights_and_Privacy_Act

Quote:Usually, student medical treatment records will remain under the protection of FERPA, not the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). This is due to the "FERPA Exception" written within HIPAA.[12]
