MDZip Posted March 10, 2015 Report Share Posted March 10, 2015 It was mentioned by Frenchie on the NIU playoff basketball broadcast that Shawn Barber has been nominated for the Sullivan award, which is given to the Nation's top amateur athlete. There are a number of college football and basketball players nominated but they get enough attention (and if I need to motivate the anti-tOSU crowd, so be it, there is a Buckeye nominated ). Past award winners have included people like Peyton Manning and Olympic Gold medalist Michael Phelps, Shawn Johnson and Missy Franklin.You can vote once a day for Barber here, there will be an elimination round that will cut it from 12 down to 6 finalists.Help him out, Zips fans he could be an Akron Olympic medalist in a couple years, how cool would that be to have a Zip in the Brazil World Cup followed by a Zip in the Brazil Olympics? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDZip Posted March 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2015 Barber named finalist for Sullivan award. Awesome, thanks to everyone that helped. Now we need to help him win it. Contest ends March 25th so we don't have to do it very long, c'mon Zips nation, give him a big push. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
