Update on player....

[ace]

I got a phone call today from the coach of the player who had a heart attack the other night. He was removed from life-support and died shortly after. I asked to be made aware of funeral arrangments and they will be released with a formal statement from the school district. Its been a tough day today. I cried a little bit tonight at the start of the 2nd quater of my first game as this is when the incident happened. Partner and coaches were aware of situation and the game just contiuned. I got a few weird looks but I got over it... I'm taking this really hard but working tonight really helped and I imagine it'll get better as time goes on. The chapter has been really supportive. The president and I had a touching phone call today. Everys been great. Thank you for yalls prayers and please continue to pray for his family.


Thanks,

John Austin
