Three years ago today the world tragically lost Gabe Henderson, a gifted young man that personified what it meant to be a Wildcat student-athlete. We remember Gabe today and every day for what he continues to mean to not just our program, but our Deep Run community.

Our annual Coaches Award has been renamed the Gabe Henderson Award, given to the player at our banquet that best models what it means to be a member of Deep Run Football.
A donation to the Gabe Henderson Live Like 10 Foundation will be made each year in the recipient’s name.
Form, technique, all can and will be coached up. But to win, we must start with the drive to compete. We have to learn to act like winners before victory.
Two days to preseason camp. 30 to the most important game of our season.
