Wounded PLHS alum makes impressive strides in rehab

CURTAIN STILL WAITING TO RISE FOR HISTORIC LUCE AUDITORIUM

BY SCOTT HOPKINS | THE BEACON Organizers are putting the final touches on another fundraiser for shooting victim Will Barton as the 20-year-old continues to make strides in his recovery. Barton, a 2010 graduate of Point Loma High School, was shot three times in the head in the early hours of Oct. 29 as he walked to his father’s Mission Hills home after finishing a late shift working at a Hillcrest restaurant. The shooter, a wanted criminal, was killed by San Diego police during an Oct. 31 shootout in Barrio Will Barton, shown while recovering from gunshot wounds at Scripps Mercy Logan.

With the dawn of every new day, Will Barton continues to amaze the medical staff and his family with advancements in his recovery. When paramedics rushed Barton to Scripps Mercy Hospital early on the morning of Oct. 29, they figured his life was over. Shot three times in the head and suffering from a massive loss of blood, the situation was dire. But Barton continues to prove the naysayers wrong. From the moment they first saw their son in the intensive-care unit of Scripps Mercy Hospital, father Will Barton and mother Marie Najera knew their son was a fighter. Milestones in Barton’s recovery, as taken from notes in a journal, kept mainly by Najera: • Nov. 4 (while in intensive care): “Will was responding to his family

by blinking his eyes on command, and has been able to move his head and exhibit some facial expressions.” • Nov. 7: “Doctors are planning on removing his ventilator today. His fever has broken.” • Nov. 10: “Will’s feeding tube has been removed from his mouth and relocated to his tummy.” • Nov. 11: “Doctors removed the ventilator machine last night as Will is breathing on his own now.” • Nov: 13: “Will has been moved to a room with a view on the tenth floor (no more ICU).” • Nov. 14: “(Will) did 15 minutes of physical therapy. He was wiped out after that.” • Nov. 19: “He moved his right foot and toes for me yesterday. This was a first, and an amazing start to his recovery.” SEE RECOVERY, Page 5

Bike advocate gears up for a new year of road-sharing efforts in Ocean Beach BY MARIKO LAMB | THE BEACON Those who have biked around any of San Diego’s stunning beach communities or climbed the hills in its distinct neighborhoods know the satisfaction of cruising around in the open air, viewing unobstructed sights and hearing the raw sounds of the city without the barrier of glass and steel that exists from within the confines of a motor vehicle. San Diego County Bicycle Coalition’s recent “Advocate of the Year,” Nicole Burgess, hopes to share that very experience with more San Diegans by lobbying for bike- and pedestrian-friendly infrastructure and inspiring a bike culture among San Diego’s youth to promote the next generation of cyclists within the city. Through her work with the San Diego Bicycle Coalition, Bike SD and SANDAG’s Bike/Ped Working Group, she ultimately hopes to help transform San Diego into a world-class bicycling city

that encourages everyday riding for all. “You can see everything on a bike,” said Burgess. “You get to just be out there in the fresh air, and it’s exciting and fun. I believe in living in your small communities. I think any community — where you live and go to school — should be a beautiful place to ride.” With that mantra in mind, the Ocean Beach resident began her grassroots bike-advocacy efforts from within the boundaries of her own community. Three years ago, for example, Burgess started a bike train for students to Dana Middle School, starting with just her eldest daughter and a few of her neighbors. Over time, that number has grown to around 15 students, accompanied by a couple other parent chaperones who have volunteered their time to ensure the children get to their respective schools safely. “I’m trying to advocate at the schools because the youth are my leaders,” Burgess said. “It’s their environment. It’s

their beautiful earth that they get to enjoy. These kids can be our advocates, and I’m hoping that they will.” By tailoring her message to today’s youth, she also hopes some teens will bypass investing in a car when they turn 16 because they have experienced the firsthand benefits of biking, particularly in light of the high death toll in adolescents and teens from motor vehicle accidents. “We have 35,000 deaths a year just from cars,” she said. “You can be in a car and be taken out by a semi every day, but we don’t avoid that car. We think it’s safe. It’s the same thing on a bike — I’m at risk out there. Any day could be my last, but the amount of accidents that happen in a car far exceed those on a bike, where you’re going at a much slower speed.” To ensure the safety of bikers and pedestrians on San Diego’s automobilecentric roadways, Burgess also helped found the San Diego City Council Dis-

OB cell-phone robber set to be sentenced BY NEAL PUTNAM | THE BEACON The sentencing of an Ocean Beach man for robbing two 14-year-olds of their cell phones at knifepoint has been rescheduled for Jan. 22. Gibran Torres Perez, 19, was on probation at the time of the robbery for a stabbing on Newport Avenue that was linked to him earlier in 2012. Perez could get up to four years in prison under a plea agreement he made with San Diego Superior Court Judge Dwayne Moring, according to court records. It’s possible he could get probation with a one-year jail term.

OB’s thrift-store shopping trend continues to catch fire BY MARSHA KAY SEFF | THE BEACON

The robberies were committed on Oct. 29 and he sold both cell phones before he was arrested on Oct. 31. Perez was on probation for an April 14, 2012 incident in which a 20-year-old man was stabbed with some type of metal tool. Perez pleaded guilty to felony assault in that earlier incident, in which he exchanged harsh words with the victim on Newport Avenue near Bacon Street. The victim suffered injuries to his neck, hands and head. Perez was sentenced to 180 days in jail and fined nearly $500 in that incident. His probation has since been revoked. He could receive more jail time for violating probation, but records indicate the judge may impose only a concurrent sentence for the violation. The earlier incident occurred when Perez had been drinking, according to court records. He was ordered not to drink alcohol for three years on probation. He remains in custody without bail.

Thrift-store business probably has never has been greater than in this stagnant economy. But regardless of their job status or income, Ocean Beach thrift regulars just know that there are bargains to be had in the second-hand stores. Even at 12, Zoe Wilcox is eagerly scouting bargains at Thrift Trader on Newport Avenue. With a $20 gift certificate she received for her birthday, she’s searching for five items. At Thrift Trader, almost all clothing goes for $5.99, or four items for $20. Currently, there’s a sale, allowing Wilcox to purchase five things for her birthday. Shopping at thrift stores “is cheap and cool,” said Wilcox. “You can find a bunch of good stuff here and sometimes you can hit the jackpot.” The preteen says she doesn’t even have to worry about keeping up with the other kids. The current big name in cool clothes for teens, she says, is Abercrombie “and they have it here.” Zoe Wilcox cozies up to one of the manEmployee De Andalio says business is nequins greeting customers at the door of brisk.

Stevens has pleaded not guilty to seven charges, which include three rape counts, penetration with an object, making a criminal threat, false imprisonment and felony assault. If convicted, Stevens faces several hundred years in prison because he has convictions for two robberies, auto theft, burglary and felony evasion of police, according to court records.

one of the finest places to ride,” she said. “Pacific Beach is a prime example. It has all that bay and it’s so packed. People are all coming to Mission Beach to ride. It’s saying we want it. We have the weather, and we can have classone facilities connecting our communities.” In addition to spearheading the effort to get share-the-road (“sharrow”) signs on local roadways — which Burgess says are a useful, but temporary fix — she has also pinpointed much-needed repairs at specific sites within the beach communities, like the three blocks on Nimitz Boulevard between Oliphant and Evergreen streets, which were lined in late December with new buffered bike lanes, thanks to her efforts. “The bike culture city is here. I can see that the momentum is here,” Burgess said. “In Portland, in the five to eight years they did all their infrastructure in the 1990s, what they spent on that was equivalent to one mile of highway construction. This is San Diego. We have beautiful weather. If Portland can do it, we should be able to increase our mode share to 20 percent.” In addition to pressing for local projects that she said will help connect

communities and boost their local economies, Burgess also envisions a bigger picture for the future of biking in San Diego. “The city of San Diego is monstrous, and I personally think we need an advisory group for each district,” Burgess said. “My pitch would be to have a bike coordinator for each district in San Diego where they’re working together really implementing what can be done out there. We have thousands of bikers riding this coastline everyday. We need innovative stuff. We have so much money that goes into planning and prioritizing projects. We need to focus on what the community wants and what the community is ready for.” With many more infrastructure projects to check off her list in the coming year, San Diego will undoubtedly see much more of Burgess in the future. In the meantime, she said, one of the best ways to advocate for the bike movement on an individual level is to simply get on a bike. “Enjoy your community in 2013 and explore San Diego by bike,” she said. The District 2 Bike-Ped Working Group meets every fourth Thursday at St. Peter’s Church, located at 1371 Sunset Cliffs Blvd. For more information or to find out other ways to get involved, email Burgess at nicole23@cox.net.

The maestros who make up OB’s musical magic BY BART MENDOZA | THE BEACON

Slightly Stoopid, which hails from Ocean Beach, will be featured during the 91X 30th Courtesy photo anniversary celebration on Jan. 12.

Ocean Beach’s music community continues to grow by leaps and bounds. Always a popular location for artists, the area is beloved and considered inspirational by a legion of musicians who reside here. Here is a selection of news concerning Ocean Beach’s music community. • Slightly Stoopid is likely the biggest success story to emerge from Ocean Beach, and it will be taking part in radio station 91X’s 30th anniversary celebration. The concert is set for Saturday, Jan. 12 at the House of Blues, with a bill that features many of San Diego’s bestknown artists. In addition to Slightly Stoopid, on hand will be hard rockers P.O.D., ska heroes Buck O Nine, hip-hop

BCN

combo Vokab Company and a special appearance by the reunited Rugburns, featuring ace raconteur Steve Poltz. Tickets for this concert are only available by winning them from the station. The band will be touring the West Coast through Jan. 27, with a headlining show scheduled April 20 at Colorado’s legendary Red Rocks Amphitheatre. • The Lazy Hummingbird coffee shop and community center has started offering music once again by way of a twicemonthly, open-mic night. The event takes place on the second and fourth Tuesday of each month. This open-mic night is a little more varied then most, with the usual singer-songwriters, but organizers are also open to magic, dance, poetry and storytelling. Signups are at 6:30 p.m. on event night. • Bassist Billy Fritz (the Coyote Problem, Peter Hall) has recorded a track for an upcoming Elvis Costello tribute album, “Beyond Belief.” He’ll be performing on a version of Costello’s 1986 track “Blue Chair,” alongside such artists as former Romeo Void singer Deborah Iyall and Nelson Bragg of Brian Wilson’s band. Fritz will also participate in “Sounds Like San Diego” a special fundraiser for the Museum of Making Music in Carlsbad on Feb. 1. The event features current performers playing the hits of San Diego’s past between 1955 and 2010, with Fritz taking part in a version of former San Diegan Chris Hillman’s tune, “Have You Seen Her Face.” Others appearing include Jack Tempchin, Joey Harris and Kevin Martin. • Dazed and Confused frontman Jason Ott has a Friday-night residency at The

Harp. From 6 to 9 p.m., Ott performs his “All Request Acoustic Show,” playing classic-rock favorites. With a set list of over 1,300 songs from which to choose, odds are he’ll know one or two of your favorite tunes. • The Heavy Guilt, featuring multiinstrumentalist Alfred Howard will be touring the Bay Area the weekend of Feb. 1. The band will release its third album this spring, with advance orders getting a bonus album of outtakes, demos and acoustic versions. In the meantime you can catch the band Jan. 28 at Winston’s Beach Club. • The weather may have cooled down a bit, but the weekly OB Farmers Market continues to heat up. Held every Wednesday, from 4 to 6 p.m., upcoming performers providing free music include Sunday Hustle and Lucky Rumba (Jan. 16), brothers Gow and Drew Taylor (Jan. 23), world-music favorites Todo Mundo (Jan.30) and young jazz up-andcomers The Trunks (Feb. 6). “We have an embarrassment of riches, musically,” said organizer Michael Head. “Mixing up genres from singersongwriters to jazz keeps the event fresh. You never know what you’ll hear from week to week, but it’s always something good.” • Musician and promoter Jefferson Jay has posted an electronica spoken-word collage to his Sound Cloud page called “I Love Ocean Beach.” Among his many other endeavors, he continues to host a Wednesday night open-mic session at Winston’s Beach Club from 6 to 9 p.m. www.soundcloud.com/jeffersonjay/ilove-ocean-beach-1.

LUCE

since the feasibility study’s conclusion — and Ziter weighed in when asked if he thought the lag was acceptable. “Not really,” Ziter said. “You have to remember that 2008 was the start of the Great Recession. When you’re operating 27 buildings [on 28 acres], that becomes problematic. And we also lost the [city] redevelopment agency as a partner.” On Feb. 1, the San Diego Redevelopment Agency was dissolved, as were all state redevelopment agencies in a move to cut California’s budget deficit. The local unit was an original planner of NTC with developer The Corky McMillin Cos. And in a private sector pressed for cash, the foundation’s plans for the Luce have suffered drastically. “This is not like Balboa Park,” Ziter said, “where the city (as park owner) is responsible for maintenance and new projects. The [NTC] Foundation has to raise the money for the auditorium by itself, and the recession slowed things down in terms of donations. Resources are spread thin, and it’s going to cost $15 million to $18 million to renovate the Luce the way we’ll want it according to the study findings.” The expected total cost of the renovations at Liberty Station is $100 million. “Projects this size have a way of [reinventing] themselves,” Ziter said. “Look at the California Center for the Arts [in Escondido], which seems to be turning around now. Look at ECPAC,” the languishing East County Performing Arts Center, which the El Cajon City Council has taken another look at and may be edging toward renovating after many years of heated debate on its future. And look at Luce Auditorium, which temporarily has fallen victim to unforeseen political and fiscal circumstances. While Friday Night Liberty is a lively, colorful spectacle for and among community patrons, it’s consigned to a life of its own as a lumbering economy and an administrative detour hold sway over the auditorium’s intermediate future.

ENJOY THE BEAUTY OF OLD TOWN Old Town San Diego’s 4th Annual 'Blessing of the Animals' Old Town San Diego State Historic Park is hosting the 4th annual Blessing of the Animals on Sunday, Jan.20, from noon to 3 p.m. The blessing is led by Monsignor Mark Campbell, but all faiths and convictions are welcome to celebrate the animals that make our lives so special. The blessings will take place between 12:30 p.m. and 1:30 p.m. There will be a pet expo with treats for pets and owners as well as activities for kids. Sky Hunters will be bringing exotic birds to the event and various rescue groups such as Emergency Animal Rescue will educate the public about rescuing, rehabilitating and supporting wild and domesticated animals.

There will also be animals available for Admission to this event is free. For more inforadoption, animal-themed entertainment and mation, visit: www.facebook.com/fiestadereyes a special appearance by Chopper the Biker or call 619-297-3100. Dog. Chopper is a one-year-old Boston terrier who is known all around the county for riding his own Harley Davidson motorcycle and his distinctive biker goggles. Historically, this event has been happening for more than 300 years – dating back to the 1700s. In San Diego the annual Benediction of the Beasts celebrates St. Anthony of the Desert, the Patron Saint of Animals. Activities for both animals and families make this celebration both unique and very moving to all who participate.

Friday Night Liberty’s vendors. A renovated Luce is an idea whose time has come, just as it had in 2004, when Ziter assumed his current post. Built in 1941, the former seat of classroom instruction for thousands of Navy recruits at the former Naval Training Center (NTC) has also hosted a few weekend movies and shows headlining wartime luminaries like Bob Hope and Nat “King” Cole. The former NTC San Diego base, where the venue is located, opened in 1916 and was decommissioned and handed over to the city in 1997, with groundbreaking for new development taking place in 2001. The Luce, on the west side of Truxton Road north of Dewey Road, is 20,000 square feet in area and has 1,800 seats, which at first blush seems more than ample for an anchor performance venue — but several logistical concerns impede renovation. There’s no lobby space; the wall-to-wall seating is too deep, the stage is too small and too high; acoustics are marginal and restrooms are lacking and out of date. A wave of public hearings and potential tenant input on the facility’s best use have also weighed into the mix, which helped result in a Del Mar firm’s 2008 feasibility study. The research was conducted at a cost of $65,000. “We concluded that we’d like to accommodate local dance theater and a number of film festivals around the city,” Ziter said, pointing to activities like several ethnic fêtes and the area’s popular 48Hour Film Project, wherein competing groups write, produce and showcase movies from scratch over two days. “We’d like three theaters within the existing facility, with 250 to 450 seats for two of them,” he said. The remaining stage would be a blackbox affair, with a customizable seating plan. Mall-type walkways would abut the theaters to the sides with a main lobby in the middle of the floor. But four and a half years have passed

THURSDAY · JANUARY 10, 2013 THE PENINSULA BEACON

11

Can Sockers continue consecutive win streak, or are they yet to be challenged? BY JOHNNY MCDONALD | THE BEACON As the win streak rolls merrily along, the question arises: are the San Diego Sockers that good or is the opposition that weak? The win string has now reached 46 straight triumphs. However, the second half of the season might provide a few answers as the team prepares for tougher engagements with the Las Vegas Legends on Jan. 18 and Feb. 5, and back-to-back with the Dallas Sidekicks, Jan. 27 and Feb. 1. Each of these teams registered 6-2 records through December and, like the Sockers, scored lopsided victories. An omen to these Sockers challenges came with a needed come-from-behind verdict over the Turlock Express recently, 11-7. Up to now, the campaign has been a series of mismatches and easy doubledigit triumphs, whether at home or away. At any rate, they’re assured of a prominent spot in the March 10-11 playoffs with Turlock again as a formidable opponent. Despite scant local media attention, the Sockers continue to play before a loyal core of over 4,600 fans at the Valley View Casino Center on Sports

Despite loss, Campbell notches new PLNU, conference records

COLLEGE ROUNDUP PLNU ATHLETICS DEPARTMENT COMMUNICATIONS

WOMENS’ BASKETBALL Record books were rewritten this month at Golden Gymnasium, and although it was Grand Canyon coming away with a 63-49 win over the Point Loma Nazarene University Sea Lions, PLNU senior forward Andrea Campbell set new school and Pacific West Conference marks in blocks with 12. Campbell matched the previous conference record of nine in the first half, before finishing with 12 rejections. Those blocks marks also eclipsed her own previous school record of 11, which she set against Bethany Lutheran her sophomore season. Campbell helped lead a valiant effort by the Sea Lions (4-6, 2-2 PacWest) to hang with the ’Lopes (12-4, 4-1 PacWest). Callie Rhoads led all scorers with 17 points as she connected on 5-of9 shots from 3-point range. Savannah Erskine also reached double-figures with 13 points. The junior guard led the team with six rebounds and four assists, to go along with three treys. PLNU’s advantage from outside kept them in the contest but eventually the size of the ’Lopes prevailed. Point Loma was set to take to the road for a PacWest conference game against Azusa Pacific on Jan. 8.

MENS’ BASKETBALL There is not much difference in looking at the recent box score between the Point Loma Sea Lions and Grand Canyon University (GCU) ’Lopes. Both teams made 18 baskets, both were nearly even on turnovers and rebounding but it was the ’Lopes ability to connect on 10 3-point baskets that earned them the 63-51 victory. This was the 13th straight win for GCU which improved to 14-2 on the season and remained a perfect 4-0 in Pacific West Conference play. The loss drops PLNU to 3-8 (0-4 PacWest). Arren Wells led PLNU with 11 points. SEE PLNU, Page 12

Arena Boulevard. Of course, the Sockers are stretching the all-time professional sports win string, but are far from the sport’s alltimers. That would be the University of Cincinnati girls’ basketball team that won 90 in a row or John Wooden’s UCLA cagers, who claimed 88 straight. They have topped the United Indoor Football Sioux Falls Storm’s 41 consecutive win mark (2005-08) and far exceeded the Los Angeles Lakers’ win

streak of 33 straight. A few nights ago, the league’s leading scorer, Kraig Chiles, continued with his dominance with a hat trick and Aaron Susi tacked on two goals and two assists as the Sockers overcame a halftime deficit to beat Turlock. A Sockers’ Professional Arena Soccer League record crowd of 4,680 watched San Diego outscore the Express 6-1 in the second half after trailing 6-5 at intermission. It was the first time the Sock-

ers had trailed at the half since a 3-2 deficit in Tijuana on Dec. 9, 2011. “Turlock came out with a lot of energy and put us on our heels. They played very well,” said Susi, the Sockers captain who posted his fifth four-point game of the season. “Good teams get wins even when they don’t play their best, and we did that.” San Diego responded with a renewed defensive energy in the second half, limiting the Express to no shots on goal

in the third quarter. “This looks like a team we may face in the playoffs,” said San Diego head coach Phil Salvagio. “There were some nerves at halftime, but we came out with great determination in the third quarter and got the win.” Despite allowing their highest goal total of the season, the Sockers extended a remarkable defensive streak, holding their opponent under double-digit goals for the 31st straight game.

THURSDAY · JANUARY 10, 2013 THE PENINSULA BEACON

PLHS hoopsters notch 5-5 record in early going Now Open in

BY SCOTT HOPKINS | THE BEACON As league play continues after holiday tournaments, the Point Loma High School varsity boys’ basketball team finds itself sitting on a 5-5 overall record. Head coach Chris Brisco lost several talented athletes from last year’s team to graduation and this year’s team has shown moments of excellence, mixed with the struggles that come with a group of new starters. Included in the current record are two league victories in games played before the winter break. The Pointers hold victories over Madison (53-42) and Christian (48-46), both played on the road. They will host each team in the return match. In the annual Chula Vista Spartan Classic tournament held after Christmas, the Pointers defeated San Diego High (6859) but fell short against both El Cajon Central (57-47) and Vista (62-34). However, at least five of Brisco’s players were not present for the tournament. A quick look at the Pointers boys’ varsity: Head coach: Chris Brisco, 7th year, overall record 66-83 Last season: 14-11 overall, 8-4 in Central League (fourth place) Lost first round CIF playoff game 5647 to Westview Varsity roster: No. Name Position Year Height 1 Jamal Agnew * G Sr. 5-10 2 DJ Lacy G Jr. 5-8 3 Dillon Fitzmorris * G Sr. 6-3 4 John Rodehouver G Jr. 5-10 5 Carlos Reason G Jr. 5-10 10 Grant Wilburn * G Sr. 5-8 13 Nick Montesano G Jr. 5-11 14 Travis Tibiatowski G Jr. 6-0 20 Sydney Rush * G Sr. 5-9 21Travis Doyle F Jr. 6-6 22 Bennett Reeber * F Sr. 6-5 23 Jake Wambaugh F Jr. 6-5 24 Chad Ahumada * F Sr. 6-3 25 Michael Gale F So. 6-5 Point Loma senior guard Dillon Fitzmorris (No. 3) goes up for two points against San Diego 32 DeAndre Benson F Jr. 6-3 High School last month in the face of a strong defensive effort.

PLNU Todd Campbell added 10 on a perfect 4of-4 shooting. Despite the ’Lopes advantage from outside, the Sea Lions were able to hang in the game thanks to their domination inside, where they outscored GCU 26-8 on points in the paint. The game was back-and-forth for the first 16 minutes before Grand Canyon closed out the first half on a 7-0 run to take a 32-23 lead into halftime. The ’Lopes would carry that momentum into the second half, where they opened on an 11-0 run. PLNU would battle back and cut the lead to nine (56-47) after a 10-2 run but that is as close as it would get. PLNU was slated to take to the road for Azusa Pacific on Jan. 8 in a PacWest showdown.

IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD Community rallies for seriously injured PLHS player Looking BY SCOTT HOPKINS | THE BEACON

Members of the PLHS community and Peninsula residents are rallying to help the family of a school athlete who suffered serious leg injuries during the annual homecoming football game this past season. Senior running back Johnny Maes, a fast and powerful runner — despite his 5-foot-6-inch, 155-pound frame — was making his 64th carry of the season. As he was tackled and driven out of bounds, Maes was clearly in excruciating pain as trainers and medical staff rushed to his side. While most knee injuries involve tearing only the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), Maes additionally tore his lateral collateral ligament (LCL) and posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), in addition to a complete dislocation of the knee joint and nerve damage in his leg all the way down to his foot. Maes has already undergone several painful — and very costly — surgeries. He has returned, in a wheelchair, to his PLHS classes. A bank account has been established for donations to help the Maes family deal with the financial hardships of their son’s medical costs. Only members of the Maes family have access to the account. To donate: American West Bank, 1350 Rosecrans St. San Diego, 92106; account no. 3300100831. In addition, Maureen Wambaugh, parent of Maes’ teammate Jake, is selling a second set of Pointer beanies she created on Maes’ behalf. The black headwear is decorated with the word “Pointers” and a dog paw. One size fits all. Her first set resulted in donations of more than $800. To place an order for beanies (there is a minimum $10 donation), contact Wambaugh at maureenwambaugh@yahoo.com or call Johnny Maes (No. 5) breaks free from Mar Vista defenders enroute to some of his total 355 yards, three touchdown-season before suffering a serious leg injury.
