Vanderbilt Loses Tight End Monahan For Season - NewsChannel5.com | Nashville News, Weather & Sports

(AP) NASHVILLE, Tenn. - Vanderbilt junior tight end Austin Monahan will miss the 2010 season because of a knee injury. 

He hurt his right knee during practice Thursday, leaving the Commodores with just one tight end with game experience. 

Meanwhile Coach Robbie Caldwell also said Friday that sophomore running back Zac Stacy is expected to miss three-to-five weeks with a knee sprain suffered one play after Monahan went out. 

Stacy, the team's second leading rusher in 2009, is listed as questionable for the Sept. 4 opener against Northwestern.
