In a letter sent to parents, the district said:

Unfortunately, we have sad news to share. Thomas Worthington and Worthington Kilbourne water polo teams were traveling to an out-of-town tournament this morning. There was a serious automobile accident with a van carrying WKHS girls and family members. We do not know the condition of those in that van, but we do know there were life-threatening injuries.

At this time, our district crisis response team has been mobilized. We will have school counselors available to work with students and families. We are in the process of ensuring that our families involved are getting the support and resources that they need. h/t nbc4i
