Midway through

Hello...

The sentence below means "He was still in the court playing, from the beginning to the middle of second quarter"?
Or, it doesn't specifically say if he is in from the beginnning?

***********

Midway through the second quarter, he is still in.

pructus Midway through the second quarter, he is still in. Unless something else in the context contradicts it, I take this to mean he was in at the beginning of the game (the beginning of the first quarter) and he continued to be in the game until at least the middle of the second quarter. CJ
