A 16-year-old Georgia high schooler was found dead at a high school football camp in Florida's Columbia County on Tuesday, WJXT-TV reported.

Donteria Searcy was found unresponsive in his cabin at about 11:15 a.m., after Fitzgerald (Ga.) High School's football team had finished a morning workout at O'Leno State Park, where they are holding a summer training camp.

Searcy was taken to a nearby hospital, but attempts to resuscitate him were unsuccessful.

An autopsy will be carried out to determine the cause of death, but police do not suspect foul play.

Searcy's death came just a few days after a rising high school football player collapsed and died after practice in Darlington, SC.

Tyquan Xavier Brantley, 14, was walking off the field with his Lamar High School team Saturday when he collapsed. He was taken to a nearby hospital and was pronounced dead about 7 p.m. local time Saturday night.
