Canada rugby sevens captain Piper Logan out for season with knee injury
Canada rugby sevens captain Piper Logan will miss the rest of the HSBC SVNS season after tearing the posterior and medial cruciate ligaments in her knee on the weekend in Vancouver
The 23-year-old from Calgary was hurt when she fell awkwardly in a collision early in Canada’s 34-12 loss to New Zealand on Saturday in the Cup quarterfinal at the HSBC SVNS Vancouver.
“I’ve torn my PCL and MCL over the weekend,” Logan said in a social media post. “Thank you to those who reached out to support, and an even bigger thanks to those who’ve carried all my belongings, held doors, filled plates of food and helped me in and out showers for the last few days.
“That’s the end of my 24/25 (HSBC SVNS) season but I know I’m in good hands and I’m ready for the journey ahead. I’m proud of my team for the resilience and grit they’ve continued to show all season long. Being witness to their personal journeys with injury shows me that rehab is just as much about mental growth as it is about physical healing. Their confidence gives me comfort knowing I’ll find that for myself again too.”
