On Tuesday, the Carson City School District released a statement after the son of Carson High School's athletic director died this past weekend.

Jake Roman graduated from Carson High School in 2017. He was a wrestler and played football for the school.

The California Highway Patrol (CHP) says Roman was snowmobiling within a snow park on Blue Lakes Road on Friday when he hit a tree.

Officials said the case is still under investigation.

The Carson City School District has released this statement: 

“All our hearts are aching for all the Roman family this morning as we mourn the tragic passing of their son this past weekend. Jake was well liked throughout the school district among his friends, peers, coaches and educators. We appreciate his example, and the memory of his legacy will forever be impressed upon our souls. Our sincerest love goes out to his parents, Coach Blair and Susan as well as his siblings, Lily and Michael."

A GoFundMe page has been created to help the family with medical bills and funeral expenses.

Roman's mother, Susan teaches sixth grade math at Carson Middle School.
