“Mike had a medical emergency during the game and he's in stable condition. He's going to stay overnight in Bloomington for continued observation. Mike is a strong guy and abundant prayers go his way…it really puts things in perspective.
“In the moment, everybody's thoughts were with Mike. Mine were and everyone around us was to get him the care that he needed…The most important thing is his health at that point in time.”
