Man, that sucks! I was really rooting for her to recover enough to just get some game experiences.

Not surprised to hear this but sorry to hear it.

She has worked so hard, I thought I would see her step onto Carver at least one.

Still, she's an inspiration and I'm sure we'll see her around in some capacity.

I don't know much about medical disqualification. Does that mean she gets a scholarship until she graduates but it does not count against the 15-scholarship limit?

Correct, she’ll get a degree if she wants. Frankly, I’d expect donors to pony up even if she didn’t qualify.

God Bless her and all her future endeavors.
