Now the Jeep won't start

Okay - so got everything buttoned up from doing the compression test.
As I was getting plug #1 back in - my wrench hit the back of the alternater and threw a big spark.
So when I turn the key - the solenoid buzzes. I get strong sparks to my distributor. Battery is showing 12V.
But nothing else. The engine doesn't turn.
Could I have fried my starter? I'm in a bind here as my wife's car died a few days ago - and this has become a daily driver...
ugh.
