CANTON, Ga. (AP) —

A woman who drowned this week in Lake Allatoona has been identified as 23-year-old Shastin Rader, an assistant softball coach at Reinhardt College.

Divers found her body Wednesday in Lake Allatoona near Shoal Creek in Cherokee County. The search began several hours earlier near Knox Bridge Highway west of Canton.

Officials say the woman and two men were on a personal watercraft Tuesday night when they apparently hit a submerged tree stump. She was not wearing a life vest.

Investigators are still looking into the fatal accident.
