— A Mormon church official in southern Alberta says two young football players who were seriously injured in a highway crash this week are recovering, while a third boy appears to have stabilized. “They’re remarkably well, to be honest with you,” Maxwell said about the families who are with the boys in Calgary. Maxwell said he was driving into Lethbridge on Thursday and saw emergency workers tending to the crash victims. “I certainly never dreamed it was going to be those five young boys,” he continued. “They’ve all spent lots of time in our home.”Tributes for the injured players continued Saturday on social media, including from Canadian Football League commissioner Randy Ambrosie and Toronto Argonauts wide receiver Jimmy Ralph, who hails from Raymond.
