The Ice Hockey Injury

Journal of College Science Teaching—October 2004

A high school hockey team is playing the last of three games in one day. The game gets rough, and the star player is slammed against the boards. Injured, he is escorted off the ice. This case follows his health as it deteriorates over the next several hours. Students are presented with the hockey player’s symptoms, and they use their knowledge of anatomy and physiology to diagnose the problem.
