I played high school football, and the worst we ever saw was a dislocated shoulder, or a broken leg or arm.

Never anybody collapsing on the field.

A friend was paralyzed from the neck down in a high school game.

There were some cases when I was in high school, back in the 70s.

One was fatal. IIRC, undiagnosed heart conditions were the culprit.
