Stuyvesant H.S. Van Flips Over in Vermont

A van carrying Manhattan’s Stuyvesant High School girl’s junior varsity track team overturned on a Vermont Highway on January 15^th. One team member was paralyzed. The team’s coach, Erin Taylor, age 29, was driving and was injured along with several team members.

The van was traveling north on Interstate 91 Saturday night when it veered onto a median and rolled over near the Interstate 89 junction. The vehicle stopped on its side, and motorists stopped and helped hold it in place, preventing it from rolling over again.

Apparently, the team was on its way to a race-walking competition at Dartmouth College.
