In Newcastle Football’s 37-12 loss in Glenrock, wide receiver/cornerback Asa Hutchinson suffered a concussion during the second quarter.

Asa had to be taken off the Sheldon Henderson Stadium field via ambulance and was transported to Memorial Hospital of Converse County in Douglas.  Generally, Asa is OK, but unhappy that he cannot play football again, as this is his second major concussion in as many season.  Karen Hutchinson, Asa’s mother, says that Asa will have a CT scan soon.

Karen also wanted me to pass along word that she and all of the Hutchinson family are grateful for everyone’s support.
