BATON ROUGE — Snapshots and flashes are all LSU kicker Colby Delahoussaye remembers from just before and just after the car accident that killed two of his friends last month on rural Beaver Lake Road between Wales and Merton, Wis.
The wreck on July 23 killed former Michigan State punter Mike Sadler of Grand Rapids, Mich., who was driving, and senior Nebraska punter Sam Foltz of Grand Island, Neb., who was in the passenger seat.
Delahoussaye, an LSU senior from New Iberia, La., happened to sit in the two-door Mercedes coupe’s back seat, an arbitrary fact that saved his life.
