Wyoming Coach Dave Christensen Hospitalized

Wyoming football coach Dave Christensen has a set routine. On Tuesday, his team proved they don’t necessarily need him around to keep that schedule. Christensen left UW’s facilities early Tuesday morning and was admitted to Ivinson Memorial Hospital, where he was being treated for kidney stones. Back at War Memorial Stadium, however, it was business as usual. “That’s the beauty of the program that he’s got set up,” UW assistant head coach Dan Hammerschmidt said. “Some of the other programs that I’ve been to, you’d be … wondering what to do. “But everything is so by-the-book, the same way every year, every practice, every day.” Christensen mentioned that he wasn’t feeling well in passing after his Monday afternoon press conference. He came to UW’s football facilities Tuesday morning, but didn’t make it long before trainers sent him to the hospital. – Star-Tribune
