If you don’t know who Jordan Culbreath is, you probably don’t follow The Trentonian, The Washington Post, ESPN, The Daily Princetonian, or, erm … this blog. In fact, some would tell you to get out to the football field more, and while you’re at it, get some school spirit.
But let’s shift back to a more positive tone, shall we?
Last month, Culbreath ’11 was announced as a finalist for the 2011 Uplifting Athletes Rare Disease Champion, a national award given to a leader in college football who has positively influenced the rare disease community.
Co-captain of the football team, Culbreath has won numerous All-Ivy League honors and holds the 8th all-time rushing record at Princeton with 1,935 rushing yards. He’s also been diagnosed with aplastic anemia, a potentially fatal disease in which bone marrow fails to produce enough new blood cells.
Voting for the Rare Disease Champion ends this Sunday. The winner will be announced on Feb 28, International Rare Disease Day, from the National Institute of Health in Bethesda.
