Player dies after sideline collapse

By Associated Press in Sharon Springs, Kansas | China Daily | Updated: 2015-11-06 08:07

A Kansas high school football player was declared brain dead at a Colorado hospital after collapsing on the sideline during a playoff game on Tuesday night.

Luke Schemm had just scored the extra point after a touchdown when the 17-year-old ran to the sidelines and collapsed, his father, David Schemm, said at a news conference on Wednesday at Swedish Medical Center in the Denver suburb of Englewood.

"Luke, our beautiful gift from God, is no longer with us," Schemm said.
