The Jimmy Rakestraw Memorial Scholarship has officially been established, marking the beginning of a lasting tribute to Coach Rakestraw’s impact both on and off the field.

Created to honor his commitment to discipline, leadership, and character, the scholarship will support student-athletes who reflect those same values. As the program begins, the foundation is being set for future recipients who will carry his legacy forward in their schools and communities.

Additional details, including application information and the first award announcement, will be shared in the coming months.
