A Sophomore WR for Iowa Central Community College was shot and killed yesterday in Gary, Indiana.

Jacquice Baylock, 18, wore number 17 for ICC football team, and lost his life to a senseless crime.

“All of our players liked him, said Jesse Montalto, Iowa Central head football coach, on Thursday. “We knew he had a chance to be as good as anybody.”

When officers arrived at the scene in Gary, Baylock was found with multiple wounds. He was transported to a nearby hospital where he was pronounced dead.

Please keep the Baylock family in your prayers this morning. This is another horrible crime to a football player, that should not be happening.

Iowa Central CC released a statement:

#TritonNation mourns as we learned a student was the victim of a shooting in Chicago, IL. Jacquice Baylock, was a member of Triton Football and a great representative of Iowa Central.
