2027 UGA football commit dies following 'sudden medical emergency'
Georgia football commit Marcellus Young Casario, a three-star defensive lineman from Canada, died Friday following an incident his high school described as a "sudden medical emergency."
Casario was a senior at Rabun Gap-Nacoochee School, a boarding school located in northeast Georgia. In a statement Friday afternoon, the school confirmed the death of an unidentified student and later postponed its football program's state semifinal playoff game against Cannon School on Friday night. A post on Rabun Gap's social media accounts Saturday afternoon confirmed the 18-year-old student as Casario. No other details have been released.
