Unhappy Another Spring Break-related accident (BGSU students involved)

Has anyone heard about this? The article didn't mention if the girls were members of a sorority. Does anyone know?

My thoughts and prayers go out to the girls and their families and friends. How terribly tragic.

BGSU Campus Mourns Deaths Of 6 Students
Teenagers Die Returning From Spring Break

BOWLING GREEN, Ohio -- Bowling Green State University
students whose spring break ends Monday must deal with
a weekend tragedy.

Six students, all 19-year-old women who were friends,
were killed in the crash of their minivan Friday night
in Verona, Ky., near Cincinnati. They were returning
from Panama City, Fla.

The university president promised to help students who
are grieving. A memorial is planned later in the week.

Students returning to campus Sunday were teary-eyed
and upset over the deaths.

Classmate Alex Glantzis of Mentor, Ohio, spent time
with the women in Panama City. He said that they
didn't make much of their goodbyes because they
expected to see each other on campus.

The victims were driver Jessica Hedlund of Perrysburg,
Ohio, and passengers Andrea Bakker of Strongsville,
Ohio; Sara Jean McCarthy of Brook Park, Ohio;
Jacqueline Ahlers of Vandalia, Ohio; and Michelle
Saunders and Ryan Leigh Foss, both of Huron, Ohio.
