The 22-year-old victim was taken to the hospital with life-threatening injuries but the Lacrosse player is expected to make a full recovery.
Though authorities have not yet identified the 22-year-old student, tweets from both the Cambridge High School athletics and lacrosse team account identified him as Tate Prezzano, a 2015 graduate of the Milton, Georgia school. Both posts asked for prayers for Prezzano and his family.
