CHANUTE — Darian Rubow’s last game ever for Chanute High was a memorable one.
The Blue Comet senior tore ligaments in her knee last week in the waning seconds of her regular season finale.
The pain was so severe, she was carried off the court, and later took part in Senior Night activities in a wheelchair.
Still to undergo surgery, Rubow suited up for Chanute’s Class 4A substate tournament opener against Parsons Wednesday.
She was inserted into the game in the waning moments and the Blue Comets well ahead. She was able to score four points, and left to a standing ovation from the crowd, hugs from her coach and teammates, and a few tears from friends and family. Chanute wound up winning, 68-44.
This time, she walked off the court.
A special moment
