3 Texas Tech Softball Players Injured In Offseason Jet Ski Accident - Yahoo Sports

Texas Tech Athletics released a statement saying the players were treated after the accident and are expected to make a full recovery. No critical injuries were reported. Lake Ransom Canyon sits just east of Lubbock, and the team was there as part of an organized program event.

The university did not release the names of the players involved or detail the specific nature of their injuries. What Texas Tech did confirm is that all three received treatment and that none of the injuries were life-threatening.

For a Red Raiders softball program in the middle of its offseason, the timing matters. Offseason is when players build strength, work on mechanics, and try to stay healthy heading into the next season. Even an injury without critical damage can affect a player's preparation window.

The program released a formal spokesperson statement, which suggests it took the situation seriously enough to get ahead of it publicly rather than let the story develop on its own.

Lake Ransom Canyon is a small reservoir community that has hosted Lubbock-area residents for decades, and it is not uncommon for local teams and organizations to use the lake for recreational events.
