At least two high-schoolers airlifted from football games in the wake of the Mason Martin injury have passed away in the last month, as an update to the story I thought I mentioned here.
Xavier McClain died due to a September 9 injury (that's the same night Martin was injured) in New Jersey. Head injury for the sophomore in a varsity game -- he was 16.
And one of the four Pennsylvania students airlifted from games the next weekend has passed. Sam Engle passed on the 16th. He collapsed near the end of the game while walking off the field.
We've had no further word in two weeks, now, on Martin himself.
