THE ROOSTER'S SCHOLARSHIP
 

At Rooster’s, we believe the people who make the biggest impact aren’t always the loudest, they’re the ones who show up. For their team, for their community, for themselves, and for the people around them.

​

The Rooster’s Scholarship was created to honor Dan “Rooster” Moyer and the values he stood for: students who have achieved success academically, athletically, and engage in community service. This scholarship is awarded to a student-athlete who leads through action; someone who goes beyond expectations to make their community stronger.

​

This is more than a one-time award. Recipients will receive $1,000 per academic year, renewable for up to four years, as long as they maintain a 3.0 GPA and continue their undergraduate education.

​

We’re not just looking for participation, we’re looking for impact. Whether it’s through service, leadership, or simply showing up when it matters most, we want to recognize students who are building something bigger than themselves.
