Josh Level, a 6-foot-5 guard/forward for New Garden Friends High School in Greensboro, North Carolina, collapsed on the court last night and passed away. Level was a junior and viewed as a 5-star prospect. According to Rivals, Level had offers from Oklahoma State, Charlotte, and Cleveland State. NC State had also expressed some interest.

Guarantee the cause is HCM. That is one of the scariest afflictions around because it’s almost impossible to detect, even with an Echo. Kills young in shape athletes all the time.

I went to school with this guy, he was not just a amazing basketball player but he was also a good student. And stop spamming this with your bullshit comments about how schools shouldn’t be named after presidents, its disrespectful.
