A week after senior captain Mark Mitera was injured in the season opener, he's still mulling over his options, his father said in an interview Thursday.
The Los Angeles Times reported Wednesday that Mitera suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee during Friday's first-period collision.
Ken Mitera, Mark's father, said the family hasn’t made a decision, which could include surgery or rehabilitating part of the knee. Michigan coach Red Berenson said last weekend that the family and doctors are waiting for the knee’s swelling to go down and then re-evaluate it.
“We really haven’t come to a decision yet,” Ken said. “It’s going to be another couple of weeks. We really want to look to the doctors’ advice and see what they feel is in Mark’s best interest in the long term.”
