SDSU Forward Dwayne Polee Collapses On Court
Dwayne Polee collapses in game
San Diego State forward Dwayne Polee II collapsed on the court during a game against UC Riverside on Monday night and was tended to by a paramedic for several minutes before being taken off on a gurney. The crowd at Viejas Arena, hushed while Polee was down, gave Polee a standing ovation as he was lifted onto the gurney after being hooked up to an electrocardiogram machine. Polee was conscious as he was wheeled off the court. His teammates came over and gave him fist-bumps. Polee pumped his fists toward the crowd.
"I said, 'Dwayne, you're going to be fine,'" coach Steve Fisher said after the game. "He said, `I'm OK coach. Tell them to win the game.'"
SDSU officials didn't immediately know what happened.
