It is with unimaginable heartbreak that we confirm three layers from the Southern Alberta Mustangs were killed in a motor vehicle accident earlier today while traveling to team practice.

Our hearts are with the families, friends, billet families, teammates, coaches, and everyone who loved them. We ask that their families be given privacy and compassion as they navigate this devastating loss.
