Spencer Webb, a star football player from Sacramento who played tight end for the University of Oregon, died this week in a cliff-diving accident at a popular swimming hole not far from the university’s Eugene, Oregon, campus.
The Lane County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release that a 22-year-old man died Wednesday afternoon after striking his head while recreating just west of Triangle Lake.
Sheriff’s officials did not identify the victim, but Webb’s family members and high school coaches confirmed the Christian Brothers star’s death to The Sacramento Bee.
