The new school year has started with tragedy at two Alabama high schools, where teenage football players have died in the past two weeks.
On Friday, Caden Tellier, 16, suffered a severe head injury while playing quarterback in the opening game for John T. Morgan Academy in Selma. His death was announced the next day.
On the same day Tellier's death was confirmed, a funeral was being held for another high school football player, some 115 miles southeast of Selma. Semaj Wilkins, 14, died after having a medical emergency during a practice at New Brockton High School.
