Athletic director John Johnson introduces former South football player Rodney Peete, during a Super Bowl High School Honor Roll ceremony on Tuesday, Jan. 5. Peete was a former Carolina Panther quarterback and Super Bowl participant, and he presented the commemorative Wilson Golden Football.
Former Carolina Panthers Quarterback and South graduate Rodney Peete presented a Wilson Golden Football during halftime at the Tuesday, Jan. 5 boys varsity basketball game against Olathe Northwest. The Super Bowl High School Honor Roll presents Wilson Golden Footballs to high schools where a player or head coach on an active Super Bowl roster graduated from. Rodney Peete played in the 2004 Super Bowl for the Carolina Panthers.
“It went really well… everything was A+,” athletic director John Johnson said.
