Austin Moffitt was a star football player and linebacker from Tennessee. He was dating Alexis McCann.
The two were in a Jeep Patriot when they failed to stop at an intersection. That is when an 18-wheeler driven by 62-year-old Jeffrey Miller from Alabama T-Boned the vehicle killing both of the high school sweethearts.
Both Moffit and McCann were wearing seatbelts as well as the truck driver.
The truck driver was not injured.
Both Moffitt and McCann graduated from Sequatchie County High School in May.
