PROVO — A group of Brigham Young University football recruits acted as good Samaritans to a girl involved in a car accident last weekend in Provo Canyon.

A group including a BYU administrator and his wife, two members of BYU's football staff and six recruits were returning from a snowmobiling activity near Sundance Mountain Resort around midday on Dec. 15 when they came upon the scene of an accident.

A 17-year-old female driver was traveling southbound on State Road 92 when her 2008 Toyota Highlander traveled off the roadway near milepost 26, slid down an embankment, rolled once and came to rest on its wheels in the riverbed, according to the Utah Highway Patrol accident report.
