Report from Ryan McDonald of the Deseret News in Salt Lake:
Desert Hills senior Penei Sewell has established himself as one of the top offensive linemen in the entire country, but his playing status for the remainder of the 2018 season is somewhat in question.
On the final day of the prestigious The Opening finals in Oregon earlier this summer, Sewell sustained an arm injury that, until earlier this week, hadn’t been diagnosed. According to his father, Gabriel, an MRI showed that Sewell sustained a torn left labrum, and he’ll need to have it surgically repaired.
Thunder head coach Carl Franke figured that meant the 6-foot-4 Sewell, who is considering programs such as Alabama, Oregon, USC and Utah, among others, would perhaps be out for the entire season, but Sewell wants to play through the injury, and he did so in the Thunder’s season opener Friday night, a 45-44 overtime loss to Jordan.
