Scarsdale H.S. Grad, 19, Dies After Motorcycle Crash in Arizona

A 2012 Scarsdale High School graduate who was a leading lacrosse player died after a motorcycle crash Saturday in Arizona, according to police.

Spencer Rapp, 19, a University of Arizona student, went over the guard rail on General Hitchcock Highway at Mt. Lemmon, according to the Pima County Sheriff's Department. Speed has been determined to be a factor in the accident.

Deputies who got to the site of the accident to the northeast of Tucson at about 5:20 p.m. on Saturday found Repp had sustained serious injuries in the crash. He was found conscious and he was able to talk with rescuers.

Repp was airlifted to University of Arizona Medical Center for further treatment. However, police said the effects of his injuries took a turn for the worse and he died at the hospital later that night.

Deputies determined that speed was a factor and Repp lost control over his motorcycle going southbound on General Hitchcock Highway.

The investigation into the crash continues.

Repp was captain of the Scarsdale High School lacrosse team in 2012.
