Huggins to hospital for precautionary reasons
May 8, 2008 by Mike CasazzaNot exactly good news, but the mind immediately jumps to a different conclusion altogether. I’ll update as I learn more.
Statement from Director of Athletics Ed Pastilong: Coach Huggins and other athletic staff members flew to Charlotte this morning for a Mountaineer Athletic Club function. After he got off the plane, Coach Huggins was checking his cell phone messages when he tripped over a cone on the tarmac and hit his head on the pavement. He received a bump on his head and was taken to a Charlotte area hospital for precautionary reasons. He never lost consciousness. Coach Huggins is fine and will be released from the hospital shortly.
