Family and community members gathered at Doolittle Community Center to remember Ashari Hughes, who collapsed and died after playing a flag football game Thursday.
“She loved music, dancing, and being around all the people she loved,” Ashari’s parents wrote in a statement. “She called football the real love of her life!”
The Desert Oasis High School student collapsed Thursday after a home game against Valley High School. She was hospitalized and died later that night.
