Injury Update: Shiota out of the hospital, beginning rehab

FCT has announced that last year’s starting GK Hitoshi Shiota finally left the hospital yesterday, after being hospitalized since Feb. 5, first for an emergency appendectomy, then for post-surgical complications related to that incident. He’s scheduled to begin rehabilitation today, but no timeframe for his return to practice or the lineup has been determined yet. He thanked the fans, his fellow players and the team staff for their encouragement during his stay in the hospital, and stated that he hopes to return to the pitch soon.
