From staff reports
All-American forward Delvon Roe's knee injury is worse than expected and the St. Edward basketball star could miss the season.
Doctors discovered a slight tear in the meniscus and some damage to the cartilage in Roe's right knee Wednesday, Eagles coach Eric Flannery said. Roe, a Michigan State recruit, will undergo surgery Monday at the Cleveland Clinic and could miss six weeks to six months, Flannery said.
"Some guys could play on what he has but because of his possible career and future, it's something that could get worse so it's something that needs to be taken care of right away," Flannery said.
