"Hicks becomes the third starter lost due to a major injury. He joins senior forward Alex Galindo (ankle) and sophomore point guard Josue Soto (thumb) on the shelf along with junior forward J.C. Otero (knee) and senior center Badara Ndiaye (knee) who were expected to play valuable back-up roles this season. Galindo and Soto could be the first to return, probably sometime in mid-January."

FAU will host the Panthers January 15th, where Hicks is sure to be out.

FIU will host FAU the last game of the regular season February 28th, when both could be back.

Well good to see Galindo's injury isn't career ending. I like to beat teams when they are at full strength, I'll take a win anyway I can get it but it means more to me when the team we play is healthy.

Plus Galindo was a cool guy, he was cool with the Dirty's last year after we were on him ALL game

This is why they dropped the contest to DII West GA…

Injuries are part of the game…but we could not have that happen or we would not have enough players to field a team…4 would cripple us severely…
