Georgetown, MA (Sports Network) - One player was injured when a bus carrying
the Maine women's basketball team ran off Interstate 95 near Georgetown,
Massachusetts, Tuesday night.
Milica Mitrovic, a freshman guard from Serbia, broke her hand and head coach
Richard Barron was treated for minor facial lacerations after the bus crossed
the median, veered across the northbound lanes and came to a stop in a wooded
area at around 8:30 p.m (ET). The driver was taken by helicopter to a Boston
hospital.
Amazingly, no other vehicles were involved in the accident.
All the players and staff were taken to three area hospitals for observation
and released Wednesday morning.
The team was en route to play Boston University on Wednesday night. The game
has since been canceled.
