The syncro struts are more than likely damaged. They keep the blocker ring and the syncro lined up.

Could be as simple as a shift fork pad. But it really dont matter cause either way it has to come out & be tore down to find out

Sounds like you broke the synchro teeth off the actual gear. We usually see at least 1 weekly like that. The old style 2nd gears are prone to issues. Upgrade to the new one and you will not have this issue again.
