PITTSBURGH — A crowd funding campaign to help with the medical expenses for the man who fell from the right field stands at PNC Park is garnering funds. Kavan Markwood, 20, fell from the 21-foot high Clemente Wall earlier this week. A family member started the GoFundMe account Friday afternoon and it already has nearly $19,000 in funding. The goal is $35,000. “Please always remember that this individual may be very special to many other people,” wrote the page’s organizer. “Can you imagine what their loved ones are going through and feeling? I know this young man very well and I know that he is very strong but he is also battling for his young life.” Video of the incident shows Markwood celebrating when he fell over the 36-inch high railing and plunged onto the warning track below. He was rushed to a nearby hospital and remains in critical condition with reported facial fractures and a leg injury. Police are calling the incident an accident. The South Allegheny School District confirmed Markwood’s identity to our news partners at WPXI on Thursday. He graduated from the district in 2022 and was a standout football player. He also played football at Walsh University and Wheeling University, according to both schools. “The Wheeling University community is heartbroken to hear of the tragedy that occurred at PNC Park involving former Wheeling football player Kavan Markwood,” the university said in a statement. “Kavan is a valued member of our Cardinal family. He played for the football team for the 2023 season after transferring from Walsh University. Our thoughts and prayers are with Kavan, his family, friends and all his loved ones. The Cardinal Family is praying for a full and speedy recovery.” Walsh University also released a statement about the incident on social media. “He is a former student and football player at Walsh University,” the university wrote. “He is in our deepest thoughts and prayers. Lord, please surround him with your healing presence. Restore his body and spirit and ease his suffering.”
