A college baseball player lost his mother on Wednesday in the tragic shooting at a church in South Carolina that left nine dead.
Sharonda Coleman-Singleton, the mother of Charleston Southern University outfielder Chris Singleton, was shot and killed in what police are calling a hate crime. The 45-year-old was an assistant pastor at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church, where 21-year-old Dylann Roof has been accused of opening fire on the congregation. Coleman-Singleton was also a track and field coach at Goose Creek High School in Charleston.
CSU baseball coach Stuart Lake says Coleman-Singleton had a great relationship with the program.
