Police report: SFA students’ vehicle hit 18-wheeler crossing U.S. 59

NACOGDOCHES, Texas (KTRE) - Two SFA students who died in a wreck Friday in Corrigan crashed into a crossing 18-wheeler on U.S. 59.

Corrigan police released an initial report on the crash on Monday.

Micah McAfoose and Graylan Spring were the student-athletes in the wreck. McAfoose died on impact and Spring died over the weekend at a Conroe hospital.

A candlelight vigil will be held Monday night to honor the memory of the two.

The vigil will be held at 7:30 p.m. at Homer Bryce Stadium in Nacogdoches. All are welcome to attend.

According to the report, the wreck occurred at 1:32 p.m. McAfoose was driving a 2007 Nissan Versa southbound. The 18-wheeler was on Plant Road and made a left-hand turn into the northbound lane of U.S. 59. The Versa struck the trailer.

Police Chief Darrell Gibson said they will be doing a reconstruction of the scene and any citations or charges are pending an investigation.

In lieu of flowers, a GoFundMe page has been set up for an SFA scholarship fund in Graylan’s name. Another GoFundMe page is pledging support for funeral expenses for Micah’s family.

McAfoose played for the baseball team and Spring was on the football team.
