Air Force: Welch to Miss Season Following Two Surgeries



Falcon Center Out for Season: Air Force center Nick Welch will end up missing the entire 2005-06 season, as his recovery from September ankle surgery will take much longer to rehabilitate than expected. Welch, who had a damaged tendon repaired last month, also had surgery in July for a broken left foot, not to mention three knee surgeries in each of the last three offseasons. Welch averaged 12 points and 3.6 rebounds last season, and will receive a “medical turnback” – academy terminology for a redshirt for this season. [10/14/05]
