NORFOLK, Va. -- It was a snowy day in January, so Old Dominion field hockey coach Andrew Griffiths and his wife, Tara, decided to have some fun. They took their young boys, Aidan and Owen, sledding at a golf course near their Chesapeake home.
While he watched his kids romping through the snow, Griffiths began to feel ill. Eventually, he got so sick that he stumbled back to the car. Tara decided to cut short the play day and drive home.
A physical therapist, Tara checked her husband’s blood pressure and heart rate at the house and found they were off the scale.
