Default Hosta -- Hail Damage

Had a hail storm come through here and many of my Hosta's were beat hard --
ripped leaves, broken stems -- Should I leave them alone, or cut them back?

Thanks!

That happened to me last year. I just left them alone and they did fine
although they looked like hell. This year they are back bigger than ever.
I though it was going to hail Thursday night, so I got an arm load of sheets
and covered as many hostas as I could (I have about 200). Of course, the
storm passed through without any hail and I am now washing the first of two
loads of sheets. Better safe than sorry.
