Concussions Plague Priest River Team

We all know football can be a violent sport, but the high school team in Priest River is paying the price of the game in head injuries. Nine players have received concussions this season, and one man is in a medically induced coma and the Priest River Lamanna High School Junior Varsity team has canceled this week’s game because they don’t have enough healthy players.Chance Stokes, a Freshman tight end, was injured in his game last week/ Ian Cull , KXLY.

Question: Is this an aberration? Or is high school football this dangerous?
