Cisse out ‘a couple of weeks’ with ankle injury

Freshman forward Yasin Cisse will be out a couple weeks with an ankle injury, according to BU coach Jack Parker.

Parker said that Cisse underwent an X-ray, and that test showed that the ankle was not broken. He categorized the injury only as an ankle that the forward “twisted pretty badly.”

“He’ll be out a couple weeks,” Parker said. “Maybe three tops, but he should be back in a couple [weeks]. Obviously, he won’t play this weekend.”

Cisse made an early exit from Friday’s 4-3 win over the No. 14 University of Wisconsin and did not return for the remainder of the contest.

He had suffered a season ending ankle injury a year ago. While playing for the Des Moines Buccaneers of the USHL, Cisse had a tendon in his ankle cut by an opponent, an injury that prematurely ended his season. Parker said that the newest injury was on the same ankle but was not the same type of injury.
