THANK YOU to the HUNDREDS of alumni, parents and friends of Diplomat Athletics who came together to make this year's Raise Our Game season such a success! Not only did you make it possible to beat previous Raise Our Game records, but your support allowed us to cross our ambitious donor goal and smash our dollar goal, raising critical funds that go directly to supporting the student-athletes of F&M.
A special thank you to the challenge donors who inspired so many others through their generous offering of a total of more than $67,000 in challenge and matching funds!
As always, we are immensely grateful to everybody who supports Diplomat Athletics through their giving and support in the crowds who we are so thrilled to have back with us this year. We hope to see you at F&M soon!
