**Update**
Thank you all for your input on how to fix the situation, there were definitely things said that going forward the team can use and in the future prevent this from happening.
But at this time luckily thanks to one of our few sponsors came through and after some pleading, the only other mentor on the team works for them so that helped, they graciously came through and helped us with the money so that we can still go to competition this week.

Glad you'll be joining us at UCF!
Write this down and stick it in your handbook, tell it to your freshmen next fall, emphasize why You Do Not Want This To Happen Again. That almost became a very expensive lesson, and expensive lessons are the kind you only want to pay for once.
