Sept. 6, 2015
We realize not all viewers to the HoyaTalk board regularly visit the HoyaSaxa.com pages and want to provide everyone an update on the condition of junior Ty Williams (C'17), who was seriously injured Saturday afternoon in the Georgetown football opener vs. St. Francis.
Sports Illustrated is reporting via a Montgomery County football web site that Williams underwent nine hours of surgery Saturday following a collision with a St. Francis wide receiver which broke five bones in Ty's neck and vertebrae. The latest reports via social media indicate that he remains unconscious but has some response in his upper and lower body.
The football page (http://www.hoyasaxa.com/sports/football.htm) will post all updates as available. This thread on the Hoyatalk football board is available to discuss further.
On behalf of the extended Georgetown community, our prayers are with Ty, his family, and his teammates at this time.

As I posted in the game thread, this is cruelly ironic given the background behind the team's "sisu" motto.
Prayers sent.

I'm very sorry to hear about Ty's injuries. Best wishes to him for a full recovery. I'm heartened to hear that both his upper and lower body are showing some responsiveness. I hope that those are signs of good things to come. My thoughts are with him and his family and friends.

Mass held today on campus for the football team and other students performed by Father Kemp. Sgarlata is doing a great job guiding these kids through this ordeal and getting the team ready for Saturday nights game.

Continued best wishes to Ty for a full and speedy recovery. Thank you, Dan, for the link. Within the article for those that didn't happen to read it is a link to a GoFundMe page to help cover Ty's family's expenses. Here it is for anyone interested in contributing: www.gofundme.com/uh3uarpc |
