LARAMIE, Wyo.—A memorial service will be held next week in Laramie for a 19-year-old University of Wyoming football player killed in a car accident.
The service for freshman linebacker Ruben Narcisse (nar-SEES’), of Miami, is planned for 5 p.m. Monday at the UniWyo Sports Complex.
The Colorado Highway Patrol says Narcisse and three teammates were traveling in a pickup on U.S. 287 south of the Wyoming state line early Monday morning when the driver apparently fell asleep. Drugs and alcohol weren’t believed to be factors.
A UW spokesman says 18-year-old CJ Morgan, of Aurora, Colo., was released from a Colorado hospital on Wednesday. Two others involved in the wreck were treated and released Monday.
Wyoming plays at Texas on Saturday. The team plans to wear helmet decals with Narcisse’s initials.
