Concussions Aren't Head Games The softball coach was working with another player and had his back turned to his daughter. She played on the team and warmed up throwing with teammates while the coach worked with hitters. The coach heard "Allison's been hit." He didn't see her fall or the throw that hit her in the head. He saw the welt above the eye but, hey, that's softball. It's a bump on the head. You gotta be tough. "Do you want to try to play?" Allison's dad asked. People with a lot more common sense than the coach overrode him. The coach's wife took Allison to the hospital, where doctors said she suffered a mild conc…

New Rowers Hit the Water With Nrra David Marcus watches from his home as rowers glide up and down the Norwalk River at different times during the day. Saturday, he became one of them, at least for a little while. Marcus attended the Norwalk River Rowing Association’s open house where he got a taste of what it’s like to be a rower. “It was great,’’ Marcus said. “I see these guys out there every morning and I wondered who they are and what they’re up to.

"It's the big one,'' he says. "It definitely feels good to have made it." Willkehr trained for the race by com…
