Magee Undergoes Successful Hernia Procedure 19/02/04
MetroStars forward Mike Magee underwent a successful procedure yesterday to repair a left inguinal hernia injury. Dr. Richard Cattey performed the procedure at Columbia Hospital in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The MetroStars 19-year-old starlet will be out six-eight weeks.
The MetroStars sent Magee to see the specialist after the player complained of discomfort during preseason training last week in Bradenton, Florida.
The 2003 first-round SuperDraft selection appeared in a team-high 29 games (19 starts) for the MetroStars in his rookie campaign. He scored seven goals and two assists for 16 points, which ranked him second on the team in scoring for the 2003 season.
