STORRS, Conn. (AP) � Connecticut guard Caroline Doty has reinjured her left knee after missing last season with a third torn ligament in the same joint.
UConn issued a statement Wednesday saying that Doty sprained the knee while playing in a half-court basketball game last week.
Dr. Tom Trojian, UConn's team doctor, says there is no new tear in the knee and the goal is to have Doty ready to play by the start of the basketball season.
Doty posted on Twitter Wednesday night that she is fine and "still loking forward to stepping on the court in August in that husky blue!"
Doty first blew out her knee in high school, and has suffered two more tears while in college. She has two years of eligibility left at UConn.
UConn has a 10-day training camp planned for August, followed by a tour of Italy and Greece.
