Looks like these people didn't learn from the first tragedy they caused last year when the foot ball player died in there custody.
Common sense says you can't be outdoors practicing when its nearly 100 degrees and humid out. You also can't be indoors with inadequate air conditioning or hydration.

Band practice between 5-9 p.m. for a short time outdoors should not present that much of a problem for a normal healthy teenager. Perhaps she had an underlying medical condition....I don't think band students have to present a physical like athletes do. I doubt there is a HS in America with a marching band that doesn't have outdoor band camp in the summer. We have it here in NC, and football practice too.
It is some coincidence that it's the same school. Unfortunately that is how these things tend to go for some reason.
As OBH said, the football player's death had nothing to do with the weather.
Everyone is always looking to place the blame on someone. Newsflash... Sometimes it just happens. People die unexpectedly every single day. It's just a part of life.

Well the first teen that died last year was during some wannabe military drill where the football team holds a very heavy log over there head in blazing hot weather. . Kind of overkill for a bunch of 15 year old little kids.

Again, the log FELL ON HIS HEAD. The weather had zero to do with it. But yeah, it's a stupid drill for HS football players. My DH played HS football and helped coach the team over the summer and he was like WTF were they thinking with that drill.
This is why my son doesn't play football anymore. You never know when you're gonna run into a block head coach with some stupid idea they saw on youtube.

At approximately the time of this incident it was 80-85 degrees and a humidity of 75%, per Weather Underground.
Far from "nearly 100 and humid."
Facts suck, dont they?
