Services have been scheduled for Nebraska football player Sam Foltz, who died Saturday in a Wisconsin vehicle accident.

Per the Waukesha County Sheriff’s Department, the auto lost control, left the road and hit a tree, at which point it caught fire.

The incident occurred when the auto lost control on wet pavement, causing it to leave the road and hit a tree. Speed was a factor, he said.

French got to know Foltz more over the past two years from working at Kohl’s Kicking Camps – where Foltz, Sadler and Meyer were serving as staff members over the weekend before Saturday’s crash near Waukesha. He and 22-year-old Foltz, of Greeley, Nebraska, both died at the scene.

A 2nd traveler, LSU kicker Colby Delahoussaye, 21, of New Iberia, Louisiana, was carried by ambulance to Waukesha Memorial Hospital for treatment. Delahoussaye was released from the hospital and was at home, LSU confirmed in a statement.

Tears flowed while hugs and stories were exchanged at a prayer vigil Sunday afternoon. The world has lost a rising star who dreamed big and was accomplishing those dreams, one after another.

People will remember him as every single one of those things. He was the 2015 Big Ten Punter of the Year.

“His tragic loss is immeasurable to his family, his friends, his classmates, his teammates and his coaches and our thoughts and prayers are with all of them”, Riley continued. LSU’s kicker also was injured in the crash. While his loss is devastating, his impact will be felt forever.

I never thought that would be the last time I talked to him before his fatal heart attack.

The three were attending the Kohl Kicking Camp in Wales, Wisconsin, where Delahoussaye was set to serve as a counselor.

“I have a picture of Mike, his laugh, his smile, just everything and his spirit”, Puyol said.

Sadler (pictured) was a four-year starter and four-time academic All-American at Michigan State. “I always say to try and be a light, and he truly was a light in this world”, as reported by the Detroit Free Press.

Mike Sadler was one of the fan favorites in Michigan State’s recent football history. “We’re not going to see him again until we get to go to heaven like him”.

Foltz earned the Eddleman-Fields Big Ten Punter of the Year award for 2015 and was picked as the preseason Big Ten punter of the year by nearly every college football publication or web site. It will be the first major college football game played at the stadium and the third straight year UW will open its season against an SEC opponent.
