Pitt signee Mason Alexander was killed in a car crash on Saturday night. He was 18 years old.
Alexander, a four-star cornerback recruit in the class of 2025, was the passenger in a car that crashed around 9 p.m. ET in a suburb of Indianapolis. Per the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office, Alexander was in a BMW that had tried to pass a car on a two-lane road.
"This maneuver was attempted just before the hillcrest. Upon coming over the hill, the BMW saw the Toyota traveling north and realized a crash was imminent," the HCSO said in a news release.
