Prep baseball: Rowe condition: fair

NEWPORT BEACH - Newport Harbor High junior Ryan Rowe, who underwent

surgery after sustaining a concussion in an outfield collision Monday,

was in fair condition early Tuesday evening, according to Sailors

baseball coach Joel Desguin.

Rowe, who had surgery to relieve pressure from bleeding in his skull

Monday night, was in the Intensive Care Unit Tuesday, doing fine, Desguin

said.

Desguin said the positive nature of Rowe’s recovery was reassuring to

Newport Harbor players and coaches, who were able to focus their efforts

on a 6-5 Pride of the Coast Tournament victory over Costa Mesa Tuesday.
