USC athletic director Pat Haden is stable, resting comfortably, and undergoing medical tests at a local hospital following a health scare Wednesday, the school announced.

Haden received medical attention after he felt lightheaded while walking on campus. Haden had to sit down before USC representatives took him to see a doctor. He was talking and alert throughout the incident, according to a school spokesperson.

The 63-year-old fell ill in a similar incident earlier this year prior to a game against Notre Dame in South Bend. After being admitted to a hospital, Haden was released shortly thereafter and able to fly home.

Haden announced last week that he would be stepping down from his role in June.
