Nebraska punter Sam Foltz and former Michigan State punter Mike Sadler were killed Saturday in a car wreck while returning from a kicking camp in Wisconsin.

LSU kicker Colby Delahoussaye was also in the vehicle at the time of the crash. He was taken to Waukesha Memorial Hospital for treatment. Tigers sports information director Michael Bonnette told ESPN that Delahoussaye needed stitches and suffered burns to his legs.

LSU later released a statement that said Delahoussaye suffered minor injuries and had been released from the hospital.

The sheriff's department said the car lost control on wet pavement, left the road and struck a tree. Speed appears to have played a role in the crash, according to the department, which added that the incident remains under investigation. The crash scene is about 10 miles north of the high school. A spokesperson for the sheriff's department said they were headed to a home in the rural area.

Foltz and Sadler had been serving as student instructors at Kohl's Kicking Camp in Wales, Wisconsin, according to a camp spokesman.

"Sam and Mike each had amazing careers as student-athletes in the Big 10 Conference, but more importantly, they were tremendous men off the field," camp director Jamie Kohl said in a statement. "We are so grateful for the opportunity we have had to know these men and their families."

Nebraska players held a vigil in honor of Foltz on Sunday afternoon outside Memorial Stadium. The stadium's scoreboard displayed Foltz's initials. Community members dropped flowers at the foot of the statue that memorializes fallen quarterback Brook Berringer, who died in a plane crash 20 years ago.

Riley described Foltz, who was 22, as one of the best young men who has ever worn the Nebraska uniform.

"Sam was universally loved and respected by everyone he touched and on whom he had a positive influence each and every day," Riley said. "His tragic loss is immeasurable to his family, his friends, his classmates, his teammates and his coaches, and our thoughts and prayers are with all of them. The young men in our football program are hurting but I know that their strength of character and resolve will bring us together and we will honor Sam every day moving forward.”

Foltz's coach at Grand Island High School, Jeff Tomlin, said Foltz was as authentic as they come. Just as he was advertised to be. He never forgot where he came from.

"The best word I can use to describe Sam is uncommon," Tomlin said.

Foltz was preparing for his fourth year as Nebraska's starting punter. He led the Big Ten in punting in 2015, averaging 44.2 yards per punt. His career average of 42.6 yards ranks fifth in Nebraska history.
