Concussion awareness urged
October 29, 2010
It’s not just the National Football League and the National Hockey league worried about concussions.
US Lacrosse CEO Steve Stenersen: “US Lacrosse is committed to raising awareness of the serious nature of concussion injury, as well as the importance of recognizing and properly caring for the injury when it occurs.”

The CDC reminds players and parents: “All concussions are serious. Don’t hide it, report it. Take time to recover. It’s better to miss one game than the whole season.”
