Sherill and Mohler scholarships are bestowed to two deserving seniors
On Nov. 18, 2000, David “Tugboat” Mohler passed away from complications of an injury he received playing the sport he loved – football. Since then, Dwight and Carol Mohler have awarded a scholarship in his name to the Meade County football player who has played all four years and attained the highest GPA on the team. One of the honored pallbearers at David’s funeral was James Sherrill, whom he played with, blocked for, and was best friends with. After graduation, Sherrill joined the Army. In April 2005, Sherrill was killed while serving in Iraq.
