Two former athletes died in separate incidents involving water-related accidents, according to reports.

Elizabeth "Lizzie" Dankert, 24, a former Union College soccer player, was killed in a boat crash in Massachusetts. The incident occurred after a group allegedly took a vessel without authorization, though specific details about the circumstances of the crash have not been released.

In a separate incident, a former mixed martial arts fighter from Kyrgyzstan reportedly drowned while attempting to rescue four girls from a strong current. The incident took place at one of the world's deepest lakes, though the specific location was not immediately confirmed.

According to reports, the former MMA fighter successfully saved all four girls from the dangerous current before losing his own life in the process. The girls' conditions and identities were not disclosed.

Both incidents remain under investigation by local authorities. No additional details about the Massachusetts boat crash or the circumstances surrounding the unauthorized use of the vessel have been made available.
