Ohio State’s Makenna Webster makes loud comeback with record setting goals scored

Makenna Webster has had an inspiring college career as a two-sport athlete. Now she’s showing her resilience in her physical recovery.

Just a few months ago, Ohio State field hockey player Makenna Webster was recovering from surgery for bilateral compartment syndrome, a serious condition that affects blood flow and can cause permanent damage.

In spite of this setback, the Buckeye graduate student has made an incredible comeback, sharing her journey with her TikTok followers.

Webster, who has been on USA Field Hockey rosters and also plays women's ice hockey, has returned to her sport with amazing energy this season.

Her dedication and resilience are truly inspiring to other athletes facing injuries.
