A high school quarterback in Pennsylvania was rushed to the hospital Friday night after he suddenly collapsed on the field.
Mason Martin, the quarterback for Karns City High School, began staggering during the third quarter of Karns’ game against Redbank Valley High. Referees noticed Martin’s unsteadiness and took action.
“I had to talk to him, and when I asked if he was alright, he told me, ‘No,’” referee Mike Vasbiner told the Butler Eagle. “So, that’s when I knew something was wrong.”
