Indiana Lawmakers Back Student Concussion Safety

INDIANAPOLIS (AP): More protections for Indiana's high school athletes suffering from concussions could become law if Statehouse momentum for the measures continues. The Indiana Senate on Thursday voted 45-1 in favor of a bill to keep high school athletes with suspected concussions off the field for at least 24 hours. The legislation also requires high school football coaches and assistant football coaches to receive training on player safety and head injuries every two years.
