Mizzou football player, women's basketball player hurt in Columbia crash

COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) — A football player and a women's basketball player from the University of Missouri have been injured after their car flipped in Columbia.

 

The Missouri State Highway Patrol says Harold Brantley, a defensive lineman, was seriously injured in the Sunday afternoon crash on U.S. 63. The patrol report says Madeline stock a women's basketball player, sustained minor injuries.

 

The report says Brantley overcorrected after driving off the left side of the highway. The car then slid off the right side of the road, struck a guardrail and overturned. The patrol says neither Brantley nor Stock was wearing a seatbelt. 

 

School spokesman Chad Moller didn't immediately return a phone call or email from The Associated Press seeking comment.

 

The University of Missouri Hospital spokeswoman Anne Kettenbrink was checking on their conditions.
