Title: Georgia high school football player dies after overhydrating Post by: Jamos on August 11, 2014, 06:07:35 PM This is a twist to hydration for the football players dealing with the heat in practice. It is so sad to see these kids in high school die from sports participation. :pray:

I can't imagine taking in that much liquid in such a short period of time. Prayers to that young man's family. :pray:

Very sad. Most people have no idea that drinking large amounts of water can be deadly.
