DALLIN'S GOING TO BE A COUGAR!!

As you may know, I've received a couple of phone calls from one of the BYU Rugby coaches wanting to talk about Dallin coming to BYU and playing BYU rugby.  Talk about his dream come true!!  There was only one problem:  TUITION!!

The succinct version is that we discovered a half-tuition scholarship on Dallin's BYU account that had been offered back in April.  We had never received a letter about that and didn't know it was even there!  After Dallin called the Financial Aid office and completed a couple things on the FAFSA, he was approved for the other half of tuition!!

So, we apologize to UVU...the scholarships he had there were going to be very helpful.  But BYU is definitely Dallin's first choice, and I don't think he could be more excited if he tried!!  Dad and I are VERY happy for him!  (Now, if we can just get the housing to work out. . . )

Hi, hope you don't mind my passing through and commenting ... just got a Google alert for BYU Rugby that brought me here! ;)

Glad to hear of another up and coming BYU Rugby recruit ... I hope he's got the stuffing to take on the nation's top level of collegiate rugby as a member of the Best Rugby Team in the Land! :D

Seriously ... it is a great honor to be a member of BYU's most consistently successful sports program in history. Congratulations and good luck!
