Ambulance to track building
Scary news at the track building - a really close friend of mine on the women's golf team was getting physical therapy at Schembechler Hall when another trainer came in to tell the trainer treating her that an athlete had collapsed in the track building. Her trainer rushed out and when my friend left there were two ambulances outside the track building. She thought they were referring to a football player but couldn't confirm. Hopefully it is something minor and the athlete is okay. More to follow as she updates me...

I hope ANYONE involved is alright, even if it's just a student out for a jog.

Please keep us posted

Not to bring levity to the situation, but am I the only one who saw this title and though, "Wait... wouldn't the building want to track the ambulances?" I thought it was going to be on a new tracking system for ambulances at UofM hospital.

yes, I totally thought the same thing. It was quite confusing until actually reading the thing.

...and he collapsed during a Barwis workout, the freep wolves will descend quickly, I'm afraid.

I'm pretty sure the wolves that raised Barwis would easily dismember the wolves from the freep.

I just hope there isn't a need for CPR. Tomorrows Freep will be about how the michigan staff molested an unconcious student athlete.

I wonder how many times that happens in the course of a year that go unnoticed or unreported because the person turned out to be OK? Hope that's the case with this situation.

I have spoken with a coach and a trainer in the department and they said they heard it was a track and field coach that collapsed. Not sure of how it happened or his or her condition. I will update as I hear more - hopefully whoever it was is alright.
