Valpo player emerges from
month-long coma
VALPARAISO, IN — Valparaiso center Kenny Harris has regained
consciousness almost a month after he collapsed while lifting weights.
Harris' parents, Kenneth and Cynthia Jolly said in a statement that
their son is out of the intensive care unit at the University of Chicago
hospital.
``He is out of a coma and is breathing on his own,'' the statement said
Friday. ``The family thanks all of those for the power of prayer and asks
for continued prayer for a full recovery of their son.''
The 6-foot-10, 300-pound sophomore was in the university athletic center
weight room when he collapsed during a supervised workout April 11.
Harris averaged nine points and five rebounds in 11 games last season as the
Crusaders went 15-15.
