With time winding down late in the fourth quarter of a back-and-forth, one-score game, Haskell forced a pivotal turnover on downs with 63 seconds remaining. The stadium went wild and the Indians’ sideline erupted in applause. Moments later, though, spectators could hear a pin drop as the crowd at Indian Field went silent. The energy was sucked out of the stadium when supporters on both sides realized Haskell sophomore Matthew Williams was down on the field and slow to get up. Williams was taken to a local hospital via medflight, but his condition is improving.
