Woman killed kayaking on Texas Lake was the Usaf Academy-NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth

We learn more about an 18-year-old woman who was hit and killed at the Grapevine Lake at the Memorial Day weekend.

The investigators said two women on a personal watercraft had hit Ava Renee Moore when she had kayaks in Grapevine Lake on Sunday. When the first aiders arrived, the two women were no longer there. The video divided with NBC 5 showed several people who wore and tried to get bogs out of the water. Despite the life -saving efforts of witnesses and first aiders, Moore died of serious traumatic injuries.

Moore was a graduate of the Timber Creek High School from 2024 2024, who recently returned home from 10 months at the US Air Force Academy Preparatory School in Colorado Springs.

Moore was an experienced basketball player who was loved by her teammates and coaches and is now incredulously and incredulously.

Moore met coach Ke'sha Blanton on the Usafa Prep School. Blanton said the word of Moor's death was almost devastating.

“My heart broke for our players, broke my heart for our parents and their family. And then it only broke my heart because as a trainer you don't notice how much these players really influence you,” said Blanton.

She remembered Moore as a hard worker, reliable, loyal, funny and motivated. She said Moore was at home and enjoyed life before starting basic training for the US Air Force Academy.

“I was proud of her. You know that as a coach I don't think we take the time to tell our players enough because we are so busy to bring them to the next goal, this next statement, the next thing we want to achieve,” said Blanton. “So my biggest thing was, I was proud of her. I was proud of everything she did and how, no matter what the storm was, she went through.

Blanton said Moore was there to protect her country, and thought that one day she could have been a four-star general. She said she was a star out of the world and now she and Moore's teammates make plans for a last farewell.

“We will celebrate their lives and come together with my players and be a team with her for the last time. It is where I am. Just come to my children, come to my children and we have this moment together,” said Blanton. “We went 21: 0 this season and this is the first loss we made, and it is an unimaginable loss, and that's why we went through the good together and we will get through the bad together.”

Blanton, now a recruitment coordinator and co -trainer in Tulane, said the heads of the USAF prep school, her commander and lieutenants, will join her in North Texas to celebrate Moore's life.

In the meantime, the search for the woman who has operated the PWC who has hit Moore is still. Witnesses told the police that she had gone with a man who hit a vehicle while leaving the area.
