A big thank you to former players, Dr Derek Sword (โ04), Dr Robert Shurtleff (โ05), Dr Brandon Akers (01โ) for providing our players with free physicals today. Panthers that give back to the program are one of the great things about PHS football.
The Pikeville Family is deeply saddened by the news of Coach Ty Scrogginsโ passing. Our thoughts & prayers are with his family, friends, the Central & DeSales communities, & all of Kentucky High School Football. The Bluegrass has lost a true coaching legend. Rest in Peace, Coach.
