The Sanger Independent School District confirmed via Facebook that there had been "a serious vehicle accident," stating that a 2025 graduate of Sanger High School had died at the scene, while two current students were injured. According to the post, which did not disclose the names of the victims, all three were members of the cross-country team. In a message on Instagram, the UIW track and cross-country program honored Musgrave and his smile, which they remarked "lit up every room you entered." "Words cannot adequately describe our heartbreak," stated the post's caption. "We love you and will miss you dearly. You made such a remarkable difference in your life."
