Wabash quarterback: Linthicum ‘gone far too soon’
Wabash senior quarterback Matt Hudson helped recruit Josh Linthicum, the Kenton Ridge grad and sophomore Wabash lineman who died Monday. This is an excerpt from his blog:
His loss is felt throughout the Wabash community, not only because of the contributions that he had already made, but because another bright young future has been taken from us. Nowhere will his loss be felt more dramatically than the Wabash football team. We (and I say “we”, even though I’m not a member of the team anymore) are such a tight knit group that I guarantee every person that has ever played football for us is saying prayers for the Linthicum Family. I know I am.

Wabash still in shock over Linthicum’s death
From the Paper of Montgomery County Online:
Wabash College senior quarterback Matt Hudson won’t forget Josh Linthicum.
After Wabash’s 41-35 double-overtime loss to Illinois Wesleyan in the first round of the NCAA Division III playoffs, Linthicum caught up to Hudson before they boarded the bus in mid-November.
“After the Illinois Wesleyan game, Josh told me if it weren’t for me he wouldn’t have been at Wabash. That’s something I will always remember,” Hudson said. “I truly hope he had the best two years of his life while he was here.”
Linthicum died Monday morning after suffering heart failure during surgery on a torn labrum on his left hip at Bethesda Hospital in Cincinnati, the Springfield (Ohio) News-Sun reported Monday. A native of Springfield, Ohio, Linthicum was 19 years old.
