EX-TERRIER GOLFER STILL HOSPITALIZED

Former William Byrd golfer Chris Adcock remains hospitalized three weeks after a near-fatal car crash in Vinton.

Adcock suffered a broken jaw and collarbone, a skull fracture and dislocated knuckles in the accident on Aug. 6. He had additional surgery last week to repair a second intestinal tear and doctors inserted tubes in his chest cavity to drain accumulating fluid.

Adcock was moved from intensive care to a private room on Tuesday and is expected to spend another five to seven days in the hospital.
