Michigan Football Player Suffers Spine Fractures in Game Due to Disturbing Conduct
During a junior varsity football game between Lakeshore High School and Kalamazoo Central High School, a Lakeshore player was injured during the third quarter. Video footage shows the Kalamazoo Central player, wearing number 73, jumping on the Lakeshore player. The injured player’s mother reported that her son suffered a broken spine in two places and is currently recovering at home, with his future in the sport uncertain. The Michigan High School Athletic Association is aware of the incident, and both schools are handling the issue internally, though details on disciplinary action remain unavailable.
