On the evening of May 16th, Galiano and her teammates were outside of a home on the 18000 block of Hollow Creek Drive when a teenage driver backed out of the driveway, not knowing Emily was behind her vehicle.

She fell underneath one of the rear tires and was run over.

Emily was transported to a local hospital where she died from her injuries.

Her death takes place on the eve of a semifinal playoff game against Mansfield Lakeridge High School.

The game has since been postponed.
