The game was halted, and paramedics were called to transport the teen to Children's Hospital. Teammates say "Juarez had just taken a hit, and as he was jogging back to the sidelines, he fell over," but just what caused the student to collapse--and die the next afternoon in hospital--is what an autopsy is expected to uncover, reports abc7.
Hollywood High students and staff are back on campus today, and remembering Juarez, who also was a baseball player and marathon runner, as "a very humble person," and "a dedicated athlete who also did well in school."
