Awful, Awful news. I think this is the first I've heard of something like this happening. I think those "football chutes" are pretty common practice equipment.

 

Prayers go out to the young man's family, coaches, team mates and friends.

Pray for the young men and coaches on this team. Most of the players witness the accident and apparently it was an instant death. This is a tragedy that will affect many of them far beyond the football field.
