A Washington high school lacrosse star died after a regular play turned tragic on the field.<\/p>\n

Eliot Abramson, a 17-year-old midfielder at Mercer Island High School near Seattle, was competing in a college recruiting showcase<\/a> on June 1 when the incident occurred.<\/p>\n

The 6-foot-2 sophomore had been involved in Mercer Island lacrosse since elementary school when he was struck by a fast-moving lacrosse<\/a> ball at the base of his neck.<\/p>\n

The ball slipped underneath the back edge of his helmet during the play.<\/p>\n

Witnesses watched as the teenager immediately lost consciousness and collapsed on the turf. Abramson was rushed to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle for emergency surgery and spent nearly a week in intensive care.<\/p>\n

School officials and family members confirmed that he died on June 7.<\/p>\n

His mother, Jessica Abramson-Lott, shared a tribute on social media, noting that her son is now reunited with his biological father, Josef Abramson, who died when Eliot was 3-years-old.<\/p>\n

Her post read: “While Eliot\u2019s time on earth will end way too soon, we are comforted that he will be in heaven with his dad, making him laugh, playing music with his smile lighting up the room. We\u2019re sure he\u2019ll be doing \u2018wall ball\u2019 in the sky and rooting for all his friends.”<\/p>\n

This marks the second time in a year that a high school athlete has died under similar circumstances.<\/p>\n

Last year, 16-year-old Ohio lacrosse player Dylan Veselic lost his life<\/a> after suffering a similar injury.<\/p>\n
