High School QB Adam Massman, 17, Dead After Sustaining Injury During Game: ‘Completely Devastated’

Adam Massman, a high school football star from Wisconsin, died from injuries he sustained during a recent game. He was 17.

Massman was a rising senior at Alma Center Lincoln High School, where he played quarterback and defensive back for the school football team. He was expected to begin his senior year just before his death and was also listed on the school’s baseball and basketball rosters.

“Adam was injured during Thursday night’s football game,” Alma Center-Humbird-Merrillan School District superintendent Drew Semingson wrote in an open letter to the district. “He received medical support from EMT who were onsite at the game, before being transported to the hospital.”
