A manner of death has not yet been determined. Coroner Scott Grim has said he's waiting on toxicology results before officially determining how Williams died.

Police have said a "chain of events" that began Saturday led to the young man's death, but the specific details included in that timeline have not yet been revealed.

Williams was taken to Easton Hospital after campus police responded to a call at Ruef Hall North around 4:20 p.m. Sunday afternoon. The Morning Call reports he was found unconscious outside of the dorm.

He was later moved to Lehigh Valley Hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 5:03 p.m. on Monday. His parents were with him at the time of his death, according to school officials.

Police are investigating if alcohol played a role in his death. Williams did not appear to be exerting himself physically in a way that may have caused his death, nor did he appear to be ill, Lehigh Valley Live reported.

Williams was a 2017 graduate of Noble & Greenough School in Dedham, where he played goalie for the Nobles.

McCrae's death follows a high-profile case of another Pennsylvania college student's death. Timothy Piazza died in February after falling at a fraternity party. Piazza sustained severe head injuries and internal bleeding as a result of the fall; charges have been filed in that case.
