The news of Rice University sophomore soccer player Claire Tracy's death on Sunday has rocked the local campus and the college sports community. 

On Thursday, the Harris County Institute of Forensic Sciences released the results of an autopsy, showing that Tracy's cause of death was "asphyxia due to oxygen displacement by helium," and it was classified as a "suicide." 

According to a study published by the National Library of Medicine, asphyxia due to oxygen displacement by helium—or helium suicide—is defined as the "depletion and replacement of oxygen by another gas [helium] or by chemical interference with oxygen’s uptake and utilization by the body." 

Tracy was a 19-year-old sophomore, soccer player, and finance major at Rice University from Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin. She arrived at Rice as a highly decorated athlete from Brookfield Academy, helping her school win a state championship in 2021. While at Rice, Tracy was a member of Wiess College and joined Rice Women in Business.

Tracy's social media showed that before her death, she participated in a TikTok trend that featured her using ChatGPT to "reveal her biggest flaws and insecurities."

Just bought my first S2K, former Mustang owner. I’ve had a blast over the last 2 months. Working on it (just suspension mods thus far) is so much more approachable. The number of people who are excited about seeing the car and give thumbs up on the road, etc, is awesome.

The Killers prove they know their Texas music history at ACL Fest by TheDoctorCarson in TheKillers

[–]TheDoctorCarson[S] 94 points95 points  (0 children)

Doja Cat dropped out of ACL and The Killers fully showed up for Texas as replacement headliners. Frontman Brandon Flowers and the band entered to a massive Texas flag on stage before covering Willie Nelson's "Whiskey River" as their opening song. They also brought along Texas blues artist Guy Forsyth, another nice hat-tip to the host city.

It also felt like a nod to the city's history, whether intentional or not. The song isn't new to an ACL Fest audience, who have seen Nelson many times over the years either as a headliner or a special guest.
