Smith has been working his 70th match of the season Once the autumn occured
Bert Smith, the NCAA officer who fainted through an Elite Eight matchup involving Gonzaga and USC a week, said Friday he fell over a blood clot in his lung.
The frightening moment was captured live throughout the Bulldogs-Trojans matchup. Smith dropped and was attended to by medical staff.
He said that the collapse was associated with a blood clot in his lung.
“It puts in perspective the worth of every day, because most of us go through our own lives — we are all guilty of it and we only dwell, right?” He told the paper. Can we provide an excess hug enough? Can we do what with our loved ones members and friends that have worth to them? When you reside something like that I did, it hits you straight in the eyes which you truly have to appreciate every day.”
According to the Indianapolis Star, Smith was put on blood thinners and 2 days after that the clot was gone. Smith tested positive for the coronavirus in August, but physicians were allegedly unsure if the clot had anything related to COVID-19.
Smith explained, in a sense he was thankful the fall occurred throughout the tournament rather than when he had been driving.
In accordance with kenpom.com, the Gonzaga-USC match was that the 70th matchup Smith worked this year.
