    We had this happen to a D-III team in our area a couple of years ago. A player from Eastern Connecticut State was jogging up the court and he just collapsed. He had an undetected heart condition.

    I wanted to start a thread focused on the story I've linked below, but I saw this and thought I'd just throw it on here. At first, I figured it was easy to blame some athletics department intern for the writing, but it looks like they pulled the article from the Owensboro paper. I tried to find the link on the Messenger-Inquirer's site, but there's a pay wall to access the gamer. And there is no way in hell I'm paying any money to read this ...

    I'm pretty sure the story wasn't taken from the paper's site.
