Coach Austin and Fochtman Continue to Make Strides
April 2, 2008
After two terrible separate car accidents a few months ago, UVa-Wise football coach Shawn Austin and freshman Steven Fochtman are both continuing to make great strides in their recoveries.
Following a stint in both Holston Valley Medical Center and Quillen Rehab Center, coach Austin is recovering at his home in Johnson City, Tenn. He has targeted walking again over the next few weeks after having left and foot surgeries.
Any one wishing to send their best wishes for coach Austin can do so to his home address at:
Shawn Austin
210 Big Valley Dr.
Apt. 2
Johnson City, Tenn. 37601
Fochtman suffered some extensive injuries when a coal truck just south of Pikeville, Ky. in February. He has been moved from Holston Valley to a hospital in Louisville, Ky., where his family recently moved from Chesapeake, Va.
To send your best to Fochtman..his address will be posted as soon as it becomes available.
Please keep both coach Austin and Stephen in your prayers during their recoveries.
