BEAVER FALLS, Pa. (AP) - An engineering student who was also on the football and track teams at Geneva College has died after suddenly falling ill while studying.

Twenty-two-year-old Jonathan Antonishen, of Acme, Westmoreland County, was taken to Heritage Valley Beaver hospital where he died Monday night.

Sports information director Van Zanic says Antonishen was the starting nose guard on the football team and competed in throwing events on the track and field team.

The Beaver County coroner did not immediately return a call seeking information about the cause of death.

Zanic says Antonishen was "one of those guys everyone gravitated to. Someone with so much life in him."

Ken Smith, president of the private, Christian school about 35 miles northwest of Pittsburgh, says "it is important for us to remember and mourn the precious life of Jonathan Antonishen."
