A Football Comeback Story
The tackles. The passes. The blocks. If you're going to suit up and play football, you need to be tough and at the top of your game.
Brooke Tanner loves the game. She plays cornerback for the Kansas City Glory, an all-female team whose mission is "empowering women and girls in the Kansas City community through the game of football."
Last year, a hamstring strain nearly left Tanner sidelined for the 2026 season.
Thankfully, University Health sports medicine specialist and Kansas City Glory team doctor Rachel Sachs, DO, helped her get back on the field.
