Thank you again for the financial help at the national meet. The grant paid for the athletes rooms and for the food for the 5 days we competed ( 6 of the 7 earned All-America honors by placing in the top 8 in their events). Because 2 will be seniors and 2 will be juniors, this exposure will open up doors of opportunity for them with the college recruiting process. Your grant was a real blessing.
