Girls Basketball: Briar Woods Kim Bell to Have Knee Surgery, May be Lost for the Season

Ashburn (Dec. 28, 2009) - Briar Woods High School senior Kim Bell started off the season on a high note, celebrating her NCAA Division I signing to Utah Valley and then back-to-back 29-point performances as she broke the 1,000-point career mark. Bell, however, may be lost for the rest of the season as Falcon coach Dave Morris says that she will likely have surgery on a meniscus tear and will face six weeks or longer of recovery on the knee injury.

In four games with Bell, who was averaging 22.0 points per game, the Falcons were 3-1 with the only loss coming to Loudoun County. The Falcons are 1-1 since. Briar Woods will host a holiday tournament starting Tuesday.
