Hatch Cover Accidents
Teammates feel Hatch's absence
With the slogan “Play Hard, Pray Harder” on the shirts of the Spiece Higher Level basketball team, the absence of the squad's best player is never far from players' minds.
“It's been surreal,” Davis Rao said. “That's the word I use to describe it.”
Rao is a member of the Spiece team that featured Canterbury junior Austin Hatch until Hatch was injured in a plane crash June 24 in northern Michigan. The accident took the life of his father, Dr. Stephen Hatch, and stepmother, Kimberly Hatch. Austin remains in a coma at Munson Medical Center in Traverse City, Mich., since the crash. To pay tribute to Hatch, the players, coach (Deric Adams) and team parents each have shirts with “Hatch” on the back and “Play Hard, Pray Harder” on the front.
“Austin is one of our brothers,” Rao said. “It's unbelievable to have to visit one of your friends in the hospital.”
Rao and Trent VanHorn are not just teammates of Hatch on the summer AAU circuit, but at Canterbury as well. The two players were competing Friday at the Gym Rats Basketball Association National Championships at Spiece Fieldhouse.
They've felt Hatch's absence on the court, off the court and especially while hanging around with friends.
“One of the neat things about Canterbury is that we're all a pretty close group,” VanHorn said. “That's a pretty big deal when you go through something like this. It's nice to have the support of all your friends.”
Just before the crash, Hatch had accepted a basketball scholarship offer from the University of Michigan, his parents' alma mater.
Taking a player of that caliber out of the lineup has made a substantial difference on the Spiece squad, but Rao and VanHorn are not counting out the possibility for a return by Hatch for the high school season.
“We're still hopeful,” Rao said. “We're definitely still hopeful. We're not counting anything out. Austin is one of the strongest people I know in faith, character and physically. When you add all that up, I'm hopeful. I'm very, very hopeful.”
The three players led the Cavaliers to the school's first sectional championship this past season. But in talking with Rao and VanHorn, it becomes apparent they want Hatch to heal as much for the fun he provides as for his incredible athletic skills.

In fact, less than 1 percent of fatal accidents in the home are the result of firearms, according to the National Safety Council.
