I went to the Uplifting Athlete's website to check on Sam Ficken's total contributions so far. His name is no longer on the list. Anyone have any idea what could have happened? Should I email Mike Farrell again? I hope he's still competing or, if not, they'll let us choose someone else instead. It just seems weird that his name was removed. I still need nine words to hit 75. WE ARE...

UPDATE: Just got an answer from Mike Farrell about why Sam Ficken has been taken off the list. Here it is...

"Sam Ficken has been taken off the list along with the rest of the freshman because we found out we were breaking a rule by having them raise money since they are not officially NCAA athletes until camp starts or something along those lines. All the money donated by your organization and by others to the freshman still went into our general fund for our total funraising and we really appreciate BSD's support every year. Perhaps next year you will still consider donating but to an upperclassman rather than a freshman since it will not be an option. Hope to see you today and let me know if there is anything I can help you with. Thanks."
