In 21 days, there have been FIVE deaths in sports.
7/26 - 15 y.o collapsed at practice (97°),
8/8 18 y.o - collapsed at conditioning (SCA),
8/9 15 y.o - collapsed at conditioning
8/10 16 y.o collapsed at practice (heat index 105°),
8/10 17 y.o - passed out at practice. Let that sink in. 5 deaths in 21 days. 4 in the span of 4 days. As ATs, we can advocate all we want, but until EVERYONE is on board (coaches, parents, athletes, admin, officials), this will be a trend we see yearly.
