Sabrina Cammock, a senior on the Syracuse track and field team was found dead Saturday in a New York City hotel, as first reported by the New York Daily News.

A Syracuse University spokeswoman confirmed the news Saturday just after 6:30 p.m.

Cammock, 21, was discovered inside her Edison Hotel room at around 9:20 a.m. on Saturday, according to the story. She was sharing a room with friends, and didn’t wake up in the morning. There were no signs of trauma or drug use, according to the story.

Cammock was majoring in Public Health. She last competed in the 2015 Upstate Challenge on Jan. 24, where she placed second in the 60-meter dash.

“Sabrina was a wonderful and remarkable person and student-athlete,” SU head coach Chris Fox said in a statement. “Our team and coaching staff are devastated by her loss. All of our thoughts are with Sabrina’s family and friends.”

SU Dean of Student Affairs Rebecca Reed Kantrowitz sent out the following statement in an email around 7 p.m. on Saturday:

Dear Students, Faculty and Staff:

It is with deep sadness that I write to inform you of the death of Syracuse University student Sabrina Marsha-Gaye Cammock.

Sabrina, who was originally from Queens, N.Y., was a senior in the David B. Falk College of Sport and Human Dynamics and majoring in public health. She was also a member of the Women’s Track and Field team, specializing in sprint distances. We know those in Falk College and Athletics are especially affected, and our thoughts are with the students, teammates, faculty, and staff who are part of these communities.

It is a painful time for our entire campus community whenever we are faced with a tragedy such as this.

Chancellor Syverud, on behalf of the full University community, extends our deepest sympathies and condolences to Sabrina’s family, friends, and loved ones during this very difficult time. We mourn as a campus community with all those whose lives Sabrina touched.

Although classes are not in session during spring break, our Student Affairs staff are reaching out to provide counseling and support to those who were close to Sabrina. In addition, anyone who needs support can reach The Counseling Center at 315-443-4715, Hendricks Chapel at 315-443-2901, and the Faculty and Staff Assistance Program at 315-443-1087.
