MT 86 n/a clutch issues

Ok so i have a wee bit of a dilemma, i was doing some snow drifting in an open parking lot and i didn't realize that there were side walks with curbs in it. Long story short after going sideways over two of them i decided to call it quits, on my way home however my clutch decides it wants to go out. It still has fluid in it, and the clutch pedal has some pressure, I only was able to pump it up enough to engage twice, then it wouldn't go into gear. To clarify it isn't sticking to the floor and still has some pressure, feels roughly the same as pushing on the gas pedal. I don't think the clutch is fried because when i was being pushed by the truck i could slip it into second and only drive in second (due to not being able to change gears and not wanting to rick gear syncing) till i had to stop then be pushed to around 25 when i could slip it back into gear and drive again. So does anyone have input an what could be the problem? Could something have been knocked loose or something when i slid over the curbs? i need to get this fixed as soon as possible due to my 7 being my only running vehicle for work!
