Delahoussaye is a placekicker for the Louisiana State University Tigers, according to the team’s website.
Foltz was preparing for his fourth year as Nebraska’s starting punter. The Nebraska native was also named as the Big Ten’s punter of the year.
Michigan State football coach Mark Dantonio said that Sadler’s impact was felt on and off the field.
Former Michigan State punter Mike Sadler was also killed in the accident.
“The entire Kohl’s Kicking family is saddened to share that Sam Foltz and Mike Sadler, two of our college/professional staff members passed away early Sunday morning”.
‘The young men in our football program are hurting but I know that their strength of character and resolve will bring us together and we will honor Sam every day moving forward, ‘ Riley said.
Sadler, who started at MSU from 2011-14, was also the school’s first four-time Academic All-American.
“When we were there, the Baylor kicker (Chris Callahan) talked about specialists being a fraternity, a bunch of guys that went to camp I knew them throughout high school and my college career so I feel like we get to hang out and talk about more than just football”, Puyol said. Over the weekend, Foltz was working a punting camp in Wisconsin, and died as a passenger in a vehicle that struck a tree in Merton, Wisconsin. He’d remind you of the Royals record and even one time he served as a one-person viewing audience for one of my sportscasts.
Police said both Sadler and Foltz were pronounced dead at the scene. The Husker punter was beloved by those that knew him and were not timid in their telling of his devotion to his faith, his relentless hard work and genuine care for those around him. Speed appeared to be a factor in the crash, the release said. “Along with Coach Riley, our focus is on providing Sam’s family, teammates and friends with the critical support and love that they need at this time”. “He loved every bit of it. He earned his spot and was really good”.
Sadler is from the Grand Rapids area, attended Forest Hills Northern High School, and was planning to attend law school at Stanford this fall. “We grieve for them”. “This isn’t supposed to happen to young people who have so much to live for”, Miles said.
