In the Nick of Time: FIU 1st Baseman Helps to Save a Life

Back home in Arizona for the summer, FIU first baseman Nick Day was making the 30-minute drive from Goodyear to Peoria last Sunday morning to meet his father for batting practice.

Day took Arizona State Route 303, one of the busiest highways in the state, to get to Peoria. It seemed like a typical drive on the 303 for Day until he spotted a small SUV suddenly start to flip in the median. The car rolled down into the median of the 303 and Day had only one thought.

"I didn't think anything other than that I have to help," Day said.
