on Thursday night.
According to harnessracing.com, Prewitt's surgery was performed on Friday and the 26-year-old will be hospitalized for a few days. Race secretary Billy Perkins, a veteran announcer himself, filled in for the remainder of the card and will call the track's $2.4 million Night of Champions card of harness racing set for this Sunday.
