Smith Jackson is vice president for student life and dean of students at
Elon University. He announced on the private school's website that
junior wide receiver Demitri Allison died Wednesday afternoon. Jackson
didn't specify what floor Allison fell from or how he fell.
Elon associate director of athletic communications Chris Rash confirmed
Jackson's statement late Wednesday in a telephone interview.
Jackson wrote that Allison had left Elon on Tuesday and teammates and
family members asked police to find him "because they were concerned for
his well-being and emotional state." He didn't elaborate.
Allison played in all nine of Elon's games this season, catching 12 passes for 123 yards.
