Another moment of silence was observed Saturday afternoon when Yale Athletic Director Thomas A. Beckett announced the death of Nicholas Grass, who had been in critical condition since the accident, to the crowd at the women’s basketball game against Brown University.
Students said Saturday’s athletic event was one of the few ordinary occurrences of the weekend.
Gopal P. Sarma ’05, who attended high school with Burnat, where he played varsity baseball for three years, described him as a “really smart and really athletic guy.”
This industriousness also strengthened his athletic career.
News of the accident reached college campuses around the country Friday and Yale Director of Sports Publicity Steve Conn said the athletic department has been overwhelmed by the response to the tragedy.
