Hana St. Juliana, 14, has been identified as one of four students killed this week at Oxford High School in Michigan.
The U.S. Sun reports Juliana joined the volleyball team this season and had also played for the frosh basketball team as well.
She had been going to the school’s basketball camp since the sixth grade.
“We will never forget your kind heart, silly personality, and passion for the game,” her basketball team wrote on Twitter. “
“This season we play for you Hana.”
The Detroit News reported she made her debut on the basketball team the night before her death.
At 14, she was the youngest killed.
She played on the front row of Oxford’s volleyball Team.
Oakland County prosecutor Karen McDonald said Hana’s father described her as “one of the happiest and most joyful kids.”
The others killed have been identified as Madisyn Baldwin, 17, Tate Myre, 16, and Justin Shilling, 17.
Authorities listed six other students and a teacher as among the injured.
CNN identifies the suspect as Ethan Crumbley, 15, a second-year student at the school.
Crumbley faces four counts of first-degree murder, one count of terrorism causing death, seven counts of assault with intent to commit murder, and 12 counts of possession of a firearm.
“We don’t have a motive at this point in time,” Undersheriff Michael McCabe said., according to CNN. “We are still investigating that.”
Police say the suspect put his hands up as soon as seeing police officers. The gun used had been bought by his father just four days earlier. Investigators found 30 shell casings and fired dozens of rounds.
He had 18 rounds left.
“With this much ammunition still with him … the quick actions of the school and the lockdown as well as the deputies going to the danger, saved lives,” Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard said.
