Johnson City, TN (My Sportsbook) - East Tennessee State sophomore center Seth Coy was tragically killed in a one-car accident early Wednesday evening in Kentucky. "Words cannot describe the sincere heartache everyone involved with ETSU athletics feels at this time, and our thoughts and prayers go out to Seth's entire family," said Bucs head coach Murry Bartow. "For those of us who worked with Seth on a day-to-day basis as part of the men's basketball program here at ETSU, this is devastating news." Coy, who stood at 6-foot-11, joined ETSU after playing alongside new UNC Tar Heel Tyler Zeller. The two won a Class 3A Indiana state championship together at Washington High School, where Coy averaged 13.6 points and 9.8 rebounds in his senior season. He played in 24 games for the Buccaneers as a true freshman, and in 10.8 minutes a game he averaged 2.9 points and 2.0 rebounds.
