MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) -- A scholarship created in honor of a student killed in a car accident is helping his peers pay for college.
Jake Flynn was a student athlete at Lakeville South High School who died in 2015 playing a game called Nerf Wars.

Six students from Lakeville South and Lakeville North received more than $22,000 in scholarships Tuesday.
