    Ex-wrestler Chief Justice Roberts hospitalized in June after fall

    The U.S. Supreme Court announced Wednesday that Chief Justice John Roberts -- who wrestled while in a private high school in Indiana decades ago -- was hospitalized for a head injury earlier this summer after suffering a fall about three weeks earlier while exercise-walking on a golf course in Maryland on Sunday, June 21, 2020.

    Roberts was kept overnight for one evening, having been treated with sutures for minor cuts, then released from the hospital the next day.

    Roberts' doctors ruled out a seizure. They believe the fall was likely due to lightheadedness caused by dehydration.

    John Glover Roberts Jr. was born January 27, 1955 in northwest Indiana. He attended Notre Dame Elementary School, then La Lumiere School, a small but affluent and academically rigorous Roman Catholic boarding school in La Porte, Indiana. While at La Lumiere, he was captain of the football team and was a regional champion on the varsity wrestling team. Roberts graduated first in his class in 1973.
