High School Quarterback Left Fighting for His Life After On-Field Collapse

A Pennsylvania high school football game was suspended on Friday night after one of the quarterbacks collapsed on the field and was rushed to the hospital.

The game was being played between Karns City High School and Redbank Valley High School in Butler County. Karns City quarterback Mason Martin began to stagger during the third quarter, and referee Mike Vasbiner noticed it, according to the Butler Eagle.

“I had to talk to him, and when I asked if he was alright, he told me, ‘No,’” the referee told the outlet. “So, that’s when I knew something was wrong.”

Martin then collapsed and was rushed by helicopter to UPMC Presbyterian Hospital in Pittsburgh. The game was called off and Redbank Valley was determined the winner as they led 35-6 at the time.

Martin’s family told KDKA-TV in Pittsburgh that their son suffered a “significant brain bleed as well as a collapsed lung.”

Mason Martin jumps through sign

The high school football team shared an update from Martin’s mother on their social media.

“Mason remains in critical condition with little change over the last 36 hours,” the message on Sunday reads. “The truth is we need a miracle. I’m not saying that to sound grim, but to let you know that we need the strength of your prayers.”

“No one believes in this kid more than us, but he needs everyone’s strength and prayers. Right now, we have to wait for the swelling to go down to assess the extent of the damage to the brain.”

Karns City Superintendent Eric Ritzert said Saturday that a prayer vigil for the senior quarterback would be held Sunday night at Diehl Stadium.

“All are welcome to gather with us in prayer,” Rizert wrote on social media, according to Penn Live. “We will also have counselors available during the community prayer vigil for those in need of support.”

  1. A brain bleed in a high schooler. Nothing said in the article about a rough tackle so the only other obvious suspect is the Cooties Cocktail he was probably coerced into taking. Thanks, Dr Fauci-Mengele. Hell was just turned up one more degree for your arrival. Prayers for this child and his family!

  2. Karns HS partnered with UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh to administer Pfizer-BioNTech and Johnson & Johnson vaccines in the high school cafeteria says:

    According to the PA Dept of Health website:
    “Vaccinations are required for children to attend school in Pennsylvania. The new regulations took effect at the start of the 2017/18 school year.”

    According to the Butler Eagle local paper:
    “10/13/21 – Karns City Area Jr. Sr. High School will host a COVID-19 vaccine clinic for community members ages 12 and older from 3 to 5 p.m. Oct. 20.
    The school has partnered with UPMC Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh to administer Pfizer-BioNTech and Johnson & Johnson vaccines in the high school cafeteria.”

    Karns City Pennsylvania high school quarterback Mason Martin is a senior at the start of this 2023/2024 school year.
    Meaning that he would have been an incoming Sophomore in October 2021 when Karns High School was administering the Covid poison shots.
