A Kansas high school football player has died just a few days after suffering a medical emergency, according to multiple reports.

KMBC reported that a football player from Shawnee Mission Northwest High School had an unspecified medical emergency after an off-season conditioning session on Wednesday and then died on Friday.

According to an email sent out to the student body and families on Friday, the deceased football player was revealed to be sophomore Ovet Gomez Regalado.

KSHB reported he was 15 years old.

“Death is always difficult to handle, but particularly so when someone so young dies,” wrote school principal Dr. Lisa Gruman, per KMBC. “It will be important to recognize that all of us will need time to process what has happened, and to express our feelings. Your child may struggle to make sense of this death. Please encourage your child to express their feelings, and be there to talk with them about what has happened.”

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family, teammates, and coaches. We know many of you will want to find a way to support the family and honor his memory.
