WAUKESHA, Wis. -- Nebraska punter Sam Foltz and former Michigan State punter Mike Sadler died in a car crash in Wisconsin after working at a kicking clinic, a sheriffs department official said Sunday. LSU kicker Colby Delahoussaye was injured in the crash.Waukesha County Sheriffs Lt. Thom Moerman said speed was likely a factor in the single-vehicle crash that happened around 11:45 p.m. Saturday.The 24-year-old Sadler, of Grand Rapids, Michigan, was driving. He and 22-year-old Foltz, of Greeley, Nebraska, both died at the scene. Delahoussaye, 21 of New Iberia, Louisiana, was also a passenger. He was treated at Waukesha Memorial Hospital and released. A statement from LSU said his injuries were minor and that he was scheduled to return home Monday.Moerman said in a statement that Sadler lost control on the wet pavement, left the roadway and struck a tree.The University of Nebraska said Sunday the team will skip this weeks planned Big Ten media days in Chicago because of Foltzs death.Foltz was a three-year starter for the Nebraska team and last year he was named the Big Tens punter of the year. Foltz graduated from Nebraska with a degree in agronomy in May. He led the Big Ten in punting last year at 44.2 yards per kick and ranked fifth in school history (42.6).Nebraska Coach Mike Riley said Foltz was respected on the team and had a positive influence on everyone he interacted with.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.Several hundred friends and teammates of Foltz gathered outside Memorial Stadium in Lincoln Sunday afternoon to remember him. Several players talked about how hard Foltz worked and his faith in God.Sam was a kind and thoughtful young man who was a leader on the playing field, in the classroom, and in his community, Nebraska Chancellor Ronnie D. Green said in a statement. He was an exemplary student-athlete who grew as a player and as a person on his path to recent completion of his degree in agronomy from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, and anyone who knew him can testify that he had an enduring influence on those around him.Sadler was a four-year starter and four-time academic All-American at Michigan State. He finished his college playing career after the 2014 season. He drew something of a cult following during his playing days because of his sense of humor and wit.I just asked my waitress what sport she thought I played. Her answer? Disk golf. Time to reevaluate my life, Sadler once tweeted.He helped get his own mock Heisman Trophy candidacy rolling one season by pushing the hashtag (hash)sadler4heisman. He would also regularly exchange funny lines on Twitter with the (at)FauxPelini account, a popular parody of the former Nebraska and current Youngstown State coach Bo Pelini.Mike impacted so many people not only as a football player, but also from an academic standpoint and in the community as well, Michigan State coach Mark Dantonio said in a statement. The world has lost a rising star who dreamed big and was accomplishing those dreams, one after another. He was one of those people that brightened your day.Dan Tracy with Kohls Kicking said both Sadler and Foltz had been working at a weekend clinic at the camp in Wisconsin.

Heres what has changed for Stanfords Kathryn Plummer since the volleyball season began just a little more than two months ago.She is no longer 17.She is not at the same position she played her entire life.She knows the feeling of being Pac-12 freshman of the week and now espnW player of the week.Stanford (14-6) upset Washington and then defeated Washington State last weekend to improve to No. 13 in the American Volleyball Coaches Association poll and move into a tie with Oregon for third place in a heated conference race. The Huskies and UCLA are tied for first at 9-3.Plummer paced the Cardinal with 4.67 kills per set -- 1.81 more than her season average -- 3.67 digs and 5.20 points in the two matches against the Washington schools.It felt so good to sweep the series, especially because I know a lot of those girls, and Ive had experience with the Washington program when I was a little kid, said Plummer, former teammates with the Huskies Crissy Jones, Bailey Tanner and Tia Scambray on the Tstreet Volleyball Club in Irvine, California. Ive played with all of them. It felt awesome last weekend.In Stanfords second victory over Washington this season, Plummer posted her fifth double-double of the season (11 kills, 15 digs). She followed that up with 17 kills against Washington State, the most by a Cardinal in a three-set match this season and added seven digs, a solo block and an ace.John Dunning recruited the top class in the nation in 2016, headed by Plummer, a 6-6 California Gatorade Player of the Year in 2015 who won a bronze medal last summer at the FIVB Under-19 beach world championships.Plummer, of Aliso Viejo, California, was brought in as an opposite, allowing her to do some setting during matches. But the Cardinals season hasnt exactly followed the plan after injuries to outside hitters Hayley Hodson, the AVCA Freshman of the Year from 2015, and freshman Michaela Keefe. An ankle sprain even left redshirt senior Inky Ajanaku sidelined for a time, leading Dunning to rethink his 6-2 offense in favor of a 5-1.So while Plummer used to be an opposite, these days shes an outside hitter. While admittedly, shes more comfortable at her old position, shes building confiidence in the new role, and its showing in the results.ddddddddddddtanford has won four of its last five and its last three victories have been sweeps.I know everyone has faith in me and believes I can do this, Plummer said. The transition to passing was a big thing for me. I never passed at a high level before.Dunning likes what he sees thus far, noting that adjusting to a new position in season is hard for any player, but for a freshman? Its really hard, even if youre really talented, he said. But Kathryns a really gifted player, and she caught onto it quick. Blocking is different and defense is different. Instead of setting, she has to pass a lot. Shes never really played a major role with our team as a passer. We didnt expect her to have to do it, and its a hard job.Being an elite beach player helped the transition, Plummer said. When you play beach, you have to do everything. Thats why I love beach so much.Plummer said shes also grown from the gritty schedule Dunning compiled that boosts Stanford to a 7 in the latest RPI. The nonconference slate included matches against Top 25 opponents San Diego, Minnesota, Illinois, Penn State and Purdue. The Cardinal defeated the Golden Gophers, Illini and Nittany Lions and extended the Toreros and Boilermakers to five.Were a young team, but we complement each other really well, said Plummer, the youngest, who turned 18 on Oct. 16. With the upperclassmen, theyre humongous leaders; theyve helped us through the transition where we were always the stars, to college volleyball where the pressure is higher.Stanford faces Colorado and Utah this weekend before hosting USC and UCLA the following weekend. The ceiling is high for this team that owes much of its success to its freshmen, in particular Plummer, a two-time Pac-12 freshman of the week, Dunning said.Shes gotten better every day weve gone on the court, he said. Shes got a good feel, and she can read. Shes one of the best junior beach players in the world and she understands a lot of things. Its been a key for us, her playing as well as she has. ' ' '
