Solved: Echo'd values in dropdowns

Hi experts, I have come here before asking for assistance in this scheduling application that I am creating and received great help. I have run into an issue recently and cannot figure out how to fix it. I am attempting to make an update screen for my application, where users can select a date and crew and echo the submitted schedule. This IS working. The issue comes in that I am echoing names into dropdowns as the first value, where the names are already existing. This is causing that name to appear once as echod, and again in the dropdown.

Is there a way I can select a name based off the echo'd value?
