Tonight's basketball game was the culmination of a successful Senior Project fundraiser to support a teammate who has been diagnosed with gastroparesis, a disease that causes the stomach not to digest food. Because of this, he has not been able to attend school or play on the team this season, and his family has incurred massive amounts of debt from traveling to appointments with specialists. He was able to be at the game tonight though, and it was so heartwarming to watch the presentation of more than $6,000 to his family! This community really knows how to work together and help each other!!
