Thanks everyone, still anguishing and waiting for an MRI. Darn Holiday weekend In the meantime, DD has alerted her team that she is resting and cannot attend offseason workouts. They asked that she visit the trainer. We took her in yesterday. DW and DD found great comfort in the visit because trainer declared "we are not looking at a pars fracture here". We can get MRI if we want but it is not necessary. I of course liked hearing this but I remain suspicious, and we will get the MRI. The trainers thinking seems to come from the fact that she can feel muscle related tightness and swelling on the affected side and is blaming it on overuse.
I can't feel comfortable because the one legged hyperextension test reproduces some pain. I am taking notice here, and no matter what the outcome is, I feel much more educated thanks to the information in these forums. FWIW, I did find a study on line by the NIH that the use of this test is "not useful in detecting spondylolysis". But of course each case is going to be different.
for anyone interested
Use of the one
Best, stick
