SMSU football player dies of brain aneurysm

A Southwest Minnesota State University student athlete has died of a brain aneurysm.

The university says 20-year-old Ben Bundy of Madison, S.D., fell unconscious at the school gym last Friday and died Wednesday at a hospital in Sioux Falls, S.D.

Bundy was a sophomore and an offensive lineman for the Mustangs.

Football coach Eric Eidsness says Bundy was a "great young man that was blessed with the ability to touch people around him in a meaningful way."
