Gwangju, South Korea - July 27 - Last night members of the USA Water Polo Senior National Teams were present at an establishment in Gwangju, South Korea celebrating the Women's National Team winning the FINA World Championship. During the evening a floor collapsed and a handful of USA Water Polo athletes suffered non-life-threatening injuries. All USA Water Polo athletes are safe and accounted for. Our thoughts and prayers are with all those affected by this tragedy.
Kaleigh Gilchrist suffered a deep left leg laceration and underwent surgery today at a hospital in Gwangju.
Paige Hauschild (right arm) and Johnny Hooper (left hand) suffered lacerations that required stitches.
Ben Hallock suffered minor scrapes (legs).
Updates will be shared on these athletes as necessary.
