Hilliary sidelined by knee injury

Written by Mike Kelly

Wednesday, November 04 2009

Appalachian State wide receiver CoCo Hilliary and the Mountaineers suffered a huge blow at practice on Tuesday.

Hillary, a red-shirt junior, suffered a season-ending knee injury at practice Tuesday afternoon at Kidd Brewer Stadium. Fortunately, the injury is not career ending. Hilliary, who is third on the team in receiving, had 19 catches for 283 yards and three touchdowns.

He was also ranked 23rd nationally in kick-off returns, averaging nearly 25 yards a return. Hilliary was ASU's leading receiver last year with 56 catches. He came to ASU as a quarterback, and he was listed as a backup on the depth-chart last season.

The Apps (6-2 overall; 5-0 Southern Conference) take on Chattanooga at home Saturday. They begin the day riding a six-game winning streak, and they've won 17 in a row in the SoCon---the second longest streak in conference history behind West Virginia, which won 30 straight from 1952-59. Our coverage begins at 1:30 pm on WATA 1450 AM Saturday.

How about sneaking on Hillary Rodham Clinton on the Squad in his place.. I am sure she has some black & gold pant suits and would blend right in...

I imagine her in more of a linebacker position.
