Nic put out an amazing effort on a heartbreaking night. There's no doubt there's more success in store this season for him.

All: A lot of great athletes/candidates here. But what Nic did in the face of great loss truly is amazing. My thoughts are with him and his family.

Veazey deserves it hands down. She has carried Marian's Girls Golf team on her back.

Nic Weishar deserves it not only for his stellar athletic performance, but for his character off the field in relation to perseverance during the most difficult time in his life. His brother Andrew must be proud!
