Assuming that's even true, so what?
Depends on your definition of "normal". Student athletes dropping dead after exercise is common enough that it has been an active topic of conversation for 5 or 6 years now.
If I remember it is a bit higher than 1/100,000 for student athletes (higher than non athletes and more likely after exercise).
Some states won't even let you participate in athletics without signing a waiver saying you know that dropping dead is a risk.
Has there been an uptick recently? Maybe.
Hard to tell from just some random newspaper reports.
I remember long ago, before the internet, during high school, there were 2 sudden deaths of students during sports at my school, one during a basketball game from a cardiac arrest and the other due to some kind of brain embolism during a volleyball game.
There was also a heart attack in a football player from another school but I am pretty sure he survived.
Seems sudden death in young people is rare but not unprecedented.
"Perhaps 1 in every 50,000 sudden cardiac deaths a year occurs in young athletes"

As for the first reference SPFREE posted, the rumor (and this is just a rumor) was that his medical emergency was caused by an unregulated substance. The autopsy is still yet to be complete.
The female Queens student died suddenly and instantly while stretching after a jog in Tindal field at Queens on June 9th.
There was never any mention of vaccine related causes for her death in any announcement or article..
Only by know nothings on Twitter.
You could only hope to do in a lifetime what this beautiful young woman had achieved in her 19 years of life.
Your use of these unrelated deaths to try to further your anti vaccine rhetoric is disgusting and pathetic.
