A Lincoln, Neb. sheriff’s department official says Nebraska punter Sam Foltz and former Michigan State punter Mike Sadler have died in a car crash in Wisconsin after coaching at a kicking clinic.
Louisiana State University kicker 21 year old Colby Delahoussaye was injured in the crash.
Waukesha County Lt. Thom Moerman said speed was likely a factor in the single-vehicle crash that happened around 11:45 p.m. Saturday night.
The 24-year-old Sadler, of Grand Rapids, Michigan, was driving.
He and 22-year-old Foltz, of Greeley, Nebraska, both died.
The University of Nebraska-Lincoln said Sunday the team will skip this week’s planned Big Ten media days in Chicago because of Foltz’s death.
Officials with Michigan State didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
