Mario Danelo, a kicker for the USC football team, was found dead Saturday in San Pedro, Calif.

Danelo's body was found at the bottom of White Point Cliff in San Pedro, according for a spokesman for the Los Angeles Police Department. Police did not release further details.

Danelo, a redshirt junior, walked on with the Trojans in 2003 and earned a scholarship in 2005, according to the USC athletic department's Web site.
He was 15-for-16 on field goals this season and made 44 of 48 PATs, leading the team in scoring with 89 points.
Danelo is the son of former NFL kicker Joe Danelo.

Wow, bottom of a cliff? Foul play perhaps?
So young too.

This is horrible. He was a good kicker and I thought he had a great future ahead of him. My thoughts go to his family.

I just saw a ticker on espn reading "USC kicker found dead" I was shocked thats a terrible thing to have happen I never saw him kick but from the stats they flashed he looked good and had a bright future ahead I"d like to hear more about the cause of death and weather or not he was possibly murdered.
