College football players are "Teaming Up for Peace" to encourage kids to make better decisions. WRTV's Amber Grigley spoke with two IU football players who joined the effort.
Barthel said junior Lendon Byram’s death on his way to prom with his girlfriend over the weekend added to a significant amount of pain students and staff were already dealing with. Byram and his girlfriend, senior Kalen Hart from Hamilton Heights, died Saturday in a crash on the way to the Hamilton Heights prom.
At the end of last year, Cathedral junior Jonathon Knoll died in a car crash and just a few months before, one of his classmates, Da’Mario McCullough, was killed in a shooting.
“This brings up those other two deaths again for everybody, for those families, for those parents, for those best friends, for those teachers,” said Barthel.
