HANNOVER, N.H. (WCAX) - The head of the Dartmouth football team is still recovering from a bike crash in March that resulted in the amputation of his leg.

Coach Eugene “Buddy” Teevens’ wife, Kristen, gave an update to the Dartmouth College Varsity Athletics.

Teevens was hurt during a bike crash in Florida in March. Because of the severity of the injury, his right leg had to be amputated.

Kristen says he continues to face other challenges but has been grateful for the outpouring of support he’s received from the Dartmouth community. “He is alert and communicating with us and ready for transfer to a premier rehab facility to continue healing. Spinal cord injuries are challenging, and if anybody is up for the challenge, it is Buddy,” she said.
