LA CROSSE - A woman killed in a Minnesota traffic crash was a teacher near La Crosse, and an All-American track athlete in college. 25-year-old Ashton May died Saturday near Adams, Minnesota on Mower County Road 7.
Authorities said her car veered into the left ditch, over-corrected, and slammed into an oncoming grain truck. May died a short time later at a hospital in Rochester Minnesota.
She became an eighth grade math-and-science teacher this fall at the middle school in Holmen, where counselors were on hand yesterday to help people deal with their loss. Before then, she was a substitute at Holmen’s Prairie View Elementary School. May also received 10 All-American honors from the NCAA’s Division III as a track athlete at UW-La Crosse – and she was an assistant coach there last year.
