Lavin is recovering from head injuries he received Thursday in an accident while he was trying to qualify for the BMX Dew Tour Championships. The 33-year-old was wearing a helmet when he fell and was knocked unconscious. He sustained brain injury, a right-eye orbital fracture and a fractured right wrist.

Lavin, at University Medical Center, on Saturday was able to move his hands. But his mother reported that he is on sedation “to rest and minimize brain swelling.”
