Senior defender Jake Cargill most likely out for tonight's game vs. Fredonia

Jake Cargill will be a game-time
decision for tonight's game vs.
Fredonia, says Coach Chris Apple.
Starting defender Jake Cargill ('12) most likely will sit out UR's 7pm match-up against Fredonia St. tonight after suffering an ankle injury in the second half of UR's 3-1 win against #7 Calvin College on Sept. 1.

Head coach Chris Apple told me yesterday that Cargill "probably won't be able to play, but it's going to be a game-time decision. Cargill is a tough kid, so you know he is going to want to play if he can."

Senior defender Doug Clift will
probably get the start on defense if,
as expected, Jake Cargill cannot play.
The severity of Cargill's injury is unknown at this time, but Apple did say that he is hoping the injury is "just an ankle sprain [and nothing worse]."

Despite the injury to one of his top defenders, Apple said that the 'Jackets should be fine if Cargill cannot play tonight.

"The good news is that we have great depth this year," Apple said. "I though [Doug] Clift ('12) stepped in and did great when Cargill got hurt [against Calvin College]."

Assuming Cargill can't go, look for Clift to get the start on defense.
