The National Center for Catastrophic<br />
Sports Injury Research: 160 SCD (78%<br />
from cardiac causes) in high school <strong>and</strong><br />
college sports (1983-1993).<br />
The estimated death rate of male athletes<br />
was 5-fold higher than for female athletes<br />
(7.47 versus 1.33 per 1000000 athletes per<br />
year)<br />
basketball or football (65%)<br />
Interestingly, male college athletes had<br />
twice the estimated death rate of their high<br />
school counterparts (14.5 versus 6.6 per<br />
1000000 athletes per year).
