Virginia’s men’s lacrosse team enters the NCAA tournament semifinals with 13 victories this season. Grayson Sallade has played in all 16 games despite being barely eight months removed from ACL surgery when Virginia opened its season Feb. 11.
Grayson Sallade was barely eight months removed from ACL surgery when Virginia opened its season Feb. 11. Yet there was Sallade, taking his usual spot in the Cavaliers’ short stick rotation and on faceoff wings.
Whenever he wasn’t working, it was a safe bet he was attending to his physical therapy. He sat out Virginia’s fall ball before getting cleared in early December and spent the next month and a half doing his own training to ensure he was ready for the preseason.“When I started to realize that I was going to get cleared a little earlier than I thought, I think that was my moral victory,” Sallade said.
“Everyone’s going ‘okay, Grayson’s on the field, be careful — no, Grayson’s hitting you, Grayson’s covering you, taking the ball and running the other way. What the heck, I thought he was hurt right now?’” Dickson said. “I think everyone was in shock and everyone was super-excited because we knew that was a huge piece of our team we needed back.”
