SWOSU students save Yukon High School athlete

By Michaela Wheatley, For The OklahomanTwo Southwestern Oklahoma State University students enrolled in the athletic training program in Weatherford saved the life of a young athlete. “We are extremely proud of our students and the way they represented the SWOSU athletic training program,” said Jessica Young, athletic training program director. Young said Emily Nicklas of White Deer, Texas, and Caitlin Foster of Hollis were in the athletic training room at Yukon High School, assisting athletes with rehabilitation and evaluating injuries when they heard a voice behind them say, “I think I need my Benadryl.” Nicklas and Foster of Hollis encountered an athlete who was experiencing anaphylactic shock, a serious allergic reaction that is rapid in onset and may cause death.
