The funeral for Tyquan Brantley is set for Friday at Lamar High School at 4 p.m. Burial arrangements are incomplete at this time.

Darlington County Coroner Todd Hardee says it could be Friday before we learn the cause of death for a freshman football player who died several hours after collapsing at practice Saturday.

Brantley, 14, died at McLeod Health Saturday evening.

Brantley's teammates at Lamar High School have continued to practice and say they're dedicating this season to him.

Friends of Tyquan Brantley started a Facebook page in his memory.
