Kansas Wrestling Forums General Discussion High School Another tragedy in the wrestling community

Well I really hate to be the barer of bad news...But Ryan Kromer from Garden City had a terrible accident last night (sat. 8/2/03). He was on his way home on a dirt road, and rolled his truck. He layed in the ditch for 4-6 hours until he was finally found at 7:30 this morning. I'm not positive as to the extent of all of his injuries, but I do know he dislocated his hip and he underwent major surgery this morning. He's still in the ICU, and we aren't able to see him until later this week. He's definitely out for football this season, but hopefully he will be able to make a full recovery. I truly hope that you will take the time and include Ryan in your prayers tonight, and also in time to come. Thank you!

It's good to hear that Kromer is doing okay. That guy is a BEAST, and I'm glad he never ventured to the same mat as myself.

"This morning they were changing his bedding and he had to hold himself off the bed by a metal bar. The doctors were amazed as to how long and easily he was able to hold on, even with the drugs he was on."

It doesn't surprise me at all that he's able to do that. Good gravy he has huge shoulders.

lol....thanks prant, we all need somethin to lighten the mood a little bit! I'll make sure he sees that when he's out tho

Hey Kromer! Keep it up man. Sounds like things are going better.

If possible, kindly provide an update on Ryan Kromer's recovery?

Thank you!

Kromer's doing well. He's been practicing, but taking it slow, since those muscles haven't been used very much in the last few months.

Thank you for the reply! Very good news.
