Baseball players from Rio Grande High School, Eldorado High School and Manzano High School gathered Wednesday afternoon to honor a student athelete who died Tuesday morning after collapsing on the Rio Grande campus over the weekend. The stands were full as athletes from Rio Grande and Eldorado prepared to face off and teammates from Manzano came out in support.

Isaac Venzor Prado, 17, was working out on the campus track Sunday when he collapsed, Antoinette Valenzuela, the Rio Grande High School principal, told CityDesk ABQ Tuesday night.

Two other students were with Prado at the time, she said. They tried to help him and called 911. Paramedics took him to a hospital, where he died Tuesday morning. His cause of death has not been released.

Valenzuela said Prado enrolled in the school in January and had already made an impression.

“Isaac was a student that every high school principal would want in their school,” she said, adding that Prado had also bonded with his peers on the Ravens baseball team, which she described as a tight-knit family.

The team canceled its game Monday. Prado will also be honored at a Saturday doubleheader and Valenzuela said team officials are still working on what form that remembrance will take.

She said the loss is devastating to Prado’s family and that the school community has extended its condolences.

“We appreciate the outpouring of love and support from the community,” Valenzuela said.
