WRAL News
Cary, N.C. — A female student died Thursday after having collapsed at a Cary middle school Wednesday afternoon.

Wake County Public School System spokesman Michael Evans said the school system was notified Thursday morning that the student had died.

Evans said she fell at the track of Reedy Creek Middle School, but he had no other information, including her identity.

The track coach, Evans said, administered CPR until emergency workers arrived and took the girl to a local hospital.

I am a student trying out for the track team at the school that she died at and the administrators and staff did the best they could, they called 911 and did CPR right away. There were rescue squads and all sorts of medical officers at the scene. Our track team is going to run in memory of her and is going to compete with her watching over us.

I know her, the news has been going all around my school. I go to west cary middle school, the girl used to go to my school. A lot of people at my school were crying today. I know her name, but I won't post it. Last year, she also had a similar accident, but it wasn't very serious. She was taken to the hospital but came back to school the next day or so. Very sad, rest in peace.

To the Family/friends/and Reedy Creek students/staff... You are all in my prayers. This is so sad, when my mom was living she use to tell me to be careful and be alert with my surroundings, and everytime we got a chance she would take me to get a check up/physical. My mom would say that she wanted her children to burry her and not burry her own child... So my deepest sympathy goes out to the family and everyone involve of this young soul, may you have the will power and faith to uplift from this trying time, and find comfort in the LORD
