Colorado quarterback Dominiq Ponder died early Sunday morning in a single-car crash, according to police. He was 23.
"The entire CU Athletics family is devastated at the tragic passing of Dominiq Ponder," Colorado athletic director Fernando Lovo said in a statement. "He epitomized the values of passion, enthusiasm, leadership, toughness, and intelligence that were revered by his teammates and coaches alike. Our hearts go out to his family and all of his teammates during this difficult time."
According to the Colorado State Patrol, the crash occurred at around 3 a.m. Sunday in Boulder County. Police said Ponder, who was driving a 2023 Tesla Model 3, lost control on a curve, and the car went across the eastbound lane, striking a guardrail and then an electrical line pole, before rolling down an embankment and catching on fire.
Ponder was pronounced dead at the scene. Police said a preliminary investigation "shows that speed is suspected as a factor," though a full investigation will take place.
