EDMOND, Okla. -- Funeral services are set today for a high school soccer player whose sister was killed in the Oklahoma City bombing.
Seventeen-year-old Zachary Eckles, a senior at Edmond Santa Fe High School, collapsed on the school's track on Wednesday and died later at a hospital.
His mother, Kathleen Treanor, says Zachary was running drills when it became difficult for him to breathe. She says the unofficial cause of death is an enlarged heart.
Zachary's 4-year-old sister, Ashley Eckles, was among 168 people who were killed when a truck bomb destroyed the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building on April 19, 1995.
Ashley was with her paternal step-grandparents, Luther and LaRue Treanor, who also died in the building's Social Security offices.
