Matthews on the mend

Former Canon-McMillan football player Jervain Matthews, pictured, was injured in Northwestern's season-opening victory over Towson State last Saturday. Matthews, a sophomore running back, carried three times for 11 yards before leaving in the second quarter with was described as a "nasty-looking" ankle injury and did not return. However, Northwestern head coach Pat Fitzgerald, when asked this week about Matthews, said he'd "probably list him as probable" for the Wildcats' game against Eastern Michigan game.
