Funeral and services arrangements were announced for a college football player who died after suffering a medical emergency during a workout at his South Carolina university.
21-year-old Bryce Stanfield of Acworth passed away Friday after being in critical condition for two days after the incident at Furman University's Paladin stadium.
A visitation will be held for the college football player at 6 p.m. on Monday, Feb. 12, at the Thomas McAfee Funeral Homes in Greenville, South Carolina.
Another visitation will be held in Powder Springs at Burnt Hickory Baptist Church on Saturday, Feb. 17 at 2 p.m., according to an online obituary. Stanfield's funeral will follow Saturday's visitation at 3 p.m. at the church.
Those who are planning to attend are encouraged to wear Furman University's colors to represent the 21-year-old's love for his university at Monday's visitation and Saturday's funeral. Funeral attendees can also wear Hoya gear in support of Harrison High football, the obituary said.
"We are heartbroken beyond measure with Bryce's sudden passing and ask that everyone, first and foremost, lift up his parents, Fred and Teri Stanfield and their family, in prayer on this day and in the days ahead," Furman head coach Clay Hendrix said in a statement from the university.
Stanfield was a junior defensive tackle on the school's team and majored in health science.
According to a release, he saw action in all 13 games this past fall, totaling 13 tackles, including four tackles-for-loss and 2.5 sacks in the Paladins' 10-3 Southern Conference championship campaign.
Locally, Stanfield attended Harrison High School in Kennesaw and graduated in 2021, according to the university's online football roster.
Furman University conferred his Bachelor of Science degree with honors in a Friday morning ceremony surrounded by family and Paladin football teammates and coaches.
"Bryce was a beautiful soul, a loving son, loyal friend, tremendous teammate and great student. We are grateful for the outpouring of love and prayers from our entire community. Bryce will be dearly missed but will be remembered in our hearts forever," said Jason Donnelly, Furman Vice-President of Intercollegiate Athletics.
