oh my gosh what a shock! i'm still trying to wrap my head around it... 11 points per game is crazy impressive but i guess you can't measure a person's worth by their stats on the court, right? he must've been so much more than just a basketball player... and head injuries are always super scary like, what if they'd caught it sooner? anyway, i'm sure the team is gonna miss him so much rest in peace ethan dietz

It's heartbreaking to hear about Ethan Dietz's passing ... The fact that his life was cut short due to an injury that occurred during a game is just devastating. As we navigate the complexities of contact sports, it's essential to acknowledge the risks involved and prioritize player safety. The college's response to this tragedy has been commendable, with a scheduled vigil serving as a testament to the team's solidarity ... It's crucial for us to come together in times like these and support each other, particularly during periods of grief.
