Ashari Hughes, a sophomore at Desert Oasis High School, was playing in a home game against Valley High School when she collapsed at around 7:30 p.m., the Las Vegas Review-Joural reported. The student was rushed to the hospital but was later pronounced dead.
Desert Oasis High School principal Ian Salzman wrote in a letter to parents that Hughes “suffered a medical emergency during an athletic event” and was provided medical aid from staff until paramedics arrived, Fox 5 reported.
“It is with a heavy heart that I inform you that the student passed away. The school and the entire district mourn the loss of this young life,” Salzman wrote.
According to her family, Hughes was experiencing chest problems during the game and went to the sideline before she collapsed, Fox 5 reported.
Hughes’ family had reportedly considered pulling her from sports as she had been experiencing ongoing cardiovascular problems. A doctor had cleared her to play in athletic competition, the family noted.
The Clark County Coroner’s Office has not yet released the cause of Hughes’ death.
A GoFundMe page was organized by Hughes’ family for funeral costs and had already raised over $2,000 two hours after it was posted Friday afternoon. As of Saturday afternoon, the fundraiser has surpassed $24,000 of its $50,000 goal.
“She called football the real love of her life! She loved hard and was loved by many,” the family wrote. “She will be missed by all of us.”
The 16-year-old’s death was three days after Buffalo Bills safety Damar Hamlin suffered cardiac arrest and collapsed in the middle of a Monday Night Football game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Hamlin has since had his breathing tube taken out and is talking with teammates and family, the team announced Friday.

You all celebrate athlete misfortune, you pop a chub on
death, you don't read the article, you type with your elbows...
But even then, my favorite part is when you bitch for being factually called out for FRacebooking.

Velcro? They use velcro now? We just shoved the flag into our waistband. Even flag football went high-tech.
Do they play “skins” anymore?

Not sure what "fracebooking" is, and I also don't see your point or how you're contributing to the conversation..?

This week, however, the Clark County Coroner’s Office — Hughes played for Desert Oasis High School in Las Vegas — has released the reason for her death. According to the office, Hughes died from anomalous origin of the right coronary artery from left coronary sinus of Valsalva.
She was born with it. Nothing to do with the vaccine.

"Not sure what "fracebooking" is"FRacebooking is when FReeptards, after being banned from Facebook -- which they should not have been using in any way shape or form in the first place -- insist on recreating their FRacebook environment by posting the same goddamn nonsense that got them banned from Facebook.
Article after article posted to FreeRepublic of useless MSM clickbait, along with the stench of "I'm not saying it was aliens, but it was aliens." garbage, posted expressly so FReeptard ping lists can endlessly regurgitate Qtard tropes in hopes of littering -- and eventually destroying -- the only website dedicated to Constitutional Conservatism.
"Las Vegas High School Student Collapses, Dies After Playing Flag Football" has nothing to do with Constitutional Conservatism, and has everything to do with FRacebooking.
Any other questions, noob? Too complicated? Bust out the box of crayons for you?

Soon, physicians are going to be advising parents not to let their children exercise or be involved with sports. It’s healthier to just let them stay inside and stay on their phone, computer, or video games.
So many things can cause a stroke or heart attack in young people, just keep them quiet and still just to make sure.

If this site is so terrible to you, and so full of your cutesy "FReeptards", then why do you even bother with it? Why not go hang out on some forum that bans anything fun or sensational? A student dying while playing a common teenager activity - on top of many other similar stories - is certainly something most normal people would want to know about / be worried about. And if the causes are something government related? When the government was acting in capacities and using powers it isn't delegated? That definitely seems like something a Conservative Constitutionalist forum would want to discuss. Or do you think we should completely wipe any thread or comment that involves anything vaccine or "vaccine" related? Tell all the ostriches to just shove their heads back in the sand?

Not really, it's pretty obvious your other juvenile terms are intended to be as offensive as possible without using terms already as explicitly offensive as possible. But hey, if you're giving out free crayons, I never say no to free stuff. My toddler would love to add to his collection!

It’s obvious he’s triple jabbed and quadruple boosted and can’t stand to be reminded he submits.
