Eastern Washington offensive lineman George Becker died during winter break. He was 18.
He passed away Saturday, but the cause of death has not been announced.
Becker was a member of the Eagles' recruiting Class of 2019 and redshirted last season. The Eagles, a member of Big Sky Conference in the NCAA's Division I Football Championship Subdivision, lost to North Dakota State in last season's title game.
"We are extremely saddened by the loss of a great person, family member, teammate and friend," Eastern Washington head coach Aaron Best said in a statement released Tuesday night, Jan. 7. "George touched many along his journey and he was loved by them all. Rest in peace, George. We love you."
Becker's alma mater Gridley (Calif.) High School also mourned his passing.
