Zag Karnowski ‘ahead of schedule’
Gonzaga center Przemek Karnowski is “ahead of schedule” in his recovery from back surgery and he’s optimistic he’ll be ready when the Zags open practice in October.
“I’m slowly getting back into it, getting in shape, doing lots of lifting, basic rehab,” he said. “I’m really happy with where I’m at and I hope to keep progressing. The doctors are telling me everything is going in the right direction.”
After spending six weeks in his native Poland, Karnowski had a late July appointment with the Spokane doctor who operated on his back Dec. 31.
“The doctor cleared me,” Karnowski said. “I was obviously happy, big smile. It’s been such a long journey, hearing those words was a great feeling”/Jim Meehan, SR. More here (subscription).
