Lake Tahoe Search Suspended For Football Player Missing From Paddle Boarding Trip

LAKE TAHOE (AP) -- Authorities are suspending the search for a University of Nevada, Reno football player who went missing in Lake Tahoe while paddle boarding.

The Placer County Sheriff's Office says it has exhausted all its options in the search for 20-year-old Mark Ma, who went missing Friday.

The sheriff's office told the station they are waiting for special search teams that use sonar, which could take two or three days.

According to a news release, Ma was on a paddle board trip with several football players Friday afternoon. The group was paddle boarding off Lake Tahoe's west shore when they encountered strong winds.

Ma's board was found adrift.

Ma, who is from Honolulu, Hawaii, is listed on the Nevada Wolf Pack website as a sophomore who plays defensive end.
