Linn-Mar shortstop Kate Sommer was resting at home Friday after being injured in a fluke accident in a game Thursday night.

Sommer was hit in the forehead by a throw from the outfield during Thursday's doubleheader against Cedar Rapids Prairie. She was treated and released from St. Luke's Hospital at approximately 1 a.m. Friday.

Sommer had a headache and was dehydrated from the injury, but her mother said she did not suffer a concussion. Sommer will not play in the Linn-Mar tournament Friday and Saturday, but she hopes to return to action next week.

Sommer is an all-state shortstop who ranks among the state leaders in batting average, stolen bases and hits.
