Caroline and Samson Omogbo died at the scene in a blaze early Tuesday in Chillum, Maryland. His sister’s 2-year-old twins were taken to a hospital, where they died.

The Coloradoan reports (https://noconow.co/1RYPm9T ) that CSU set up a GoFundMe Wednesday and as of Friday morning it has earned more than $84,000.

Under NCAA rules, money from the fund can be used to cover costs of temporary housing for family members, replacing items lost in the fire, medical expenses and funeral expenses.

Omogbo played in CSU’s Wednesday night game at Air Force before traveling home Thursday to meet with the rest of his family.
