AXTELL, Texas — An Axtell High School coach died in a single-vehicle accident in Huckabay, while visiting friends, according to the school district.  

Baseball coach Cameron Bankston died late last week, as announced by Axtell ISD Superintendent JR Proctor.

Bankston had been a coach in the district for a year. 

"Coach Bankston came to Axtell just a single year ago, and had already made an unmistakable impact on our school," Proctor said in a Facebook post. "Please keep his family and loved ones in your prayers."
