Georgia Sprinter Impaled by Javelin, Expected to Make Full Recovery
From the article:
An athlete at the University of Georgia is expected to make a full recovery after being impaled by a javelin, the school said in a statement released Wednesday. Freshman sprinter Elija Godwin suffered a punctured and collapsed left lung after he ran backward into a javelin resting on the ground at an unusual angle, according to reports.
It was truly an accident,” Georgia Athletic Director Greg McGarity said (via Dawg Nation). “Nobody threw anything or anything like that.”
Godwin was taking part in backward running drills with teammates when he was pierced by the javelin.
