Ryan Dyson is a UCF alum who was involved on campus academically, in the Greek community and as an avid UCF sports fan. Unfortunately, he was in a car accident leaving him in a comatose state from which he has yet to wake.

This unfortunate incident has turned his family upside down, and they have incurred hefty medical expenses. Fortunately for Dyson and his family, Ryan’s friends — also UCF students — have stepped in and taken the initiative to put on a local event to help raise money in support of Dyson and his family to assist with their medical bills.
