Virginia redshirt junior guard Sammy Zeglinski (Philadelphia, Pa./The William Penn Charter School) will undergo an operation on his left knee on Tuesday (Oct. 19). The operation will involve cartilage work and the duration of Zeglinski’s rehabilitation will be determined after the surgery.
Zeglinski injured the knee during a workout in early October.
“I feel for Sammy,” said Virginia head coach Tony Bennett. “He has worked hard to get ready for this season and he’s an integral part of our team. I know he’ll work hard and be diligent about his rehabilitation.
“Sammy is one of our more experienced players and our other guards will need to step up in his absence.”
