After an X-ray and bone scan Wednesday, Hollie Tyler, center for the University of Montana Lady Griz basketball team, said a doctor determined she does not have a stress fracture in her foot.
Tyler is still awaiting the doctor's decision Thursday morning of whether she will be able to play in Friday's game against Montana-Western.
"It's been sore all season and was really sore after Deja Vu," she said.
Tyler was taken to the hospital after the injury flared up during Sunday's game against Deja Vu, a team of former UM basketball players. She said that there wasn't a single incident that caused the pain, but it has been a nagging injury.
Tyler practiced just a few minutes with the team Wednesday, but spent most of the time on an exercise bike off to the side of the court.
"Losing a player like Hollie is something you don't want," said head coach Robin Selvig. "She's an awfully big part of the team."
The 6-foot-3-inch junior was named all-Big Sky Conference her first two seasons.. Last year she led the team with 15.1 points per game, and rebounding with 9.3 a game.
The Lady Griz face Montana-Western in their season opener at 7:35 p.m. on Friday in the Adams Center.
