Hellgate High School photographer Skylar Wallen is recovering after spleen removal. She is shown here with Missoula Phoenix head coach Willie Beamon and team owner Michael Burks. The accident happened at the Missoula Phoenix/Helena football game Saturday night, the result of a collision when Phoenix quarterback Nick Arnold was hit out of bounds into Skylar. She was driving home, but taken to the hospital with severe abdominal pain. A pint of blood was found in the stomach, so she was rushed to the OR to remove her spleen. We are sure grateful that she is doing well and on the road to recovery. DB
