Rapid Heart Rate Sidelines Ohio University’s Terry

Ohio University center Nick Terry will be sidelined at least another week after passing out during a practice because of a rapid heart rate.

Terry, a 6-foot-11 freshman, blacked out during a practice Saturday, team trainer Skip Vosler said Tuesday.

“The cardiologist wants to do more testing,� Vosler said. “He’s not satisfied yet to allow him to participate.�

Vosler said he believed Terry would be tested through the early part of next week.

The Bobcats, who lost to No. 6 Kentucky, 95-58, Tuesday night, have Mid-American Conference games at Eastern Michigan on Saturday and at Toledo on Monday.

Terry set a state record last season by shooting 83% at Sparta Highland High.

He had started four games for the Bobcats, averaging 2.7 points and 1.3 rebounds a game.
