Endowed Scholarship Honors Memory of Jake Panus

Scholarship Fund Has Ties to the Kentucky Derby

Last August, Jake Panus passed away in a tragic automobile accident at the age of 16. Jake’s father, Stephen, a University of South Carolina graduate, has started The Jake Panus Walk-On Football Endowed Scholarship in memory of his son, who wanted to walk-on to the Carolina football program. 

The scholarship will provide a walk-on football player who, through hard work and perseverance, earns an athletics scholarship and contributes to the success of the program and the community.

There is a special tie-in between the Panus Family, the Gamecocks and the Kentucky Derby. For more information, please read here.
