Student that won the free tuition.....

Unread post by AppGrad1 » Sun Sep 18, 2022 4:39 pm

Thought I'd post this about the student they chose with the best Game Day sign to win free tuition and fees.
He's actually called a miracle baby.
His mother had rectal cancer while pregnant with him. This is the story...

ASU also picked out 11 students and gave them $500 dining expenses and 14 students and gave them $250 in dining expenses.

Thanks for posting. Zackary is my son and is indeed a miracle baby. Me and his mom are alum (Dawn class of 95 and me- Chris class of 96) his older brother (Carson) is a Junior at App. My families blood runs Black and Gold. I thought it was awesome they awarded all 3 the tuition

Class act by our university and really glad to hear that his dad is here. Loved his sign! Both his sign and the Furman still sucks signs made me laugh out loud big time. He earned it! Tell your wife she is a miracle mother as well! Hearing that story and your family story makes him winning it even more special. Love to see this type stuff!
