He has not been located as of this moment. If any of the players on his high school or Division I teams have had any contact with him, please contact his family. He is a good kid. We want to make sure that he is safe. Let him know that he can also contact his past and present coaches. He will have their numbers.

Any news? This puts worring about a game result or seeding in perspective. As father to two sons, one deploying to Afghanistan, my thoughts are with this family.

Thanks for everyone's concern, and YES, this has put a big damper on the excitement re: McKinley's very successful season.
There were rumors yesterday that Austin Holcomb had been found. These were strictly rumors.
He is still missing and please continue to keep him and his family in your prayers.
Someone will definitely post an official notification when he is found.

My thoughts are with you. For those concerned, it is on the internet under missing kids complete with picture...search his name. Best wishes..

I just called the faculty coach (Simon) and she confirmed that there are rumors that a past teammate has spoken to Austin vis xbox, but no confirmation of a location and he is still listed as missing! I pray all gets cleared soon and we can all rest knowing he is safe! I coached Austin with BRSA 2 years ago. Great kid!

There is nothing worse for a parent than not knowing where your child is. Praying for Austin and his family and a safe return.
