CHARLOTTE CHRISTIAN FOOTBALL ALUMNI BANQUET Charlotte Christian hosted the first football alumni banquet Feb. 12, 2011 at Bryon’s South End. More than 150 alumni, current players and families, former coaches and administration attended the celebration. The night’s festivities included a guest appearance by Charlotte Christian’s first head football coach Ricky Sayle as well as a special recognition of the 1992 state championship team. Celebrating 21 years of having a football program at Charlotte Christian, the event was planned to reconnect past players, families and coaches while introducing them to current players, coaches and families. Headlining the event was guest speaker Coach Fisher DeBerry (below), a decorated retired football coach from the Air Force Academy. Coach DeBerry spent 23 years at the Air Force Academy during which time he was named the NCAA Coach of the Year and was inducted into the South Carolina Sports Hall of Fame. He delivered the keynote address on the importance of legacy and making an impact on the lives of student-athletes. The vision is to offer the banquet every three years for Charlotte Christian football athletes to stay connected.
WHERE ARE THEY NOW? Charlotte Christian congratulates the following graduates who are currently playing football at the collegiate level.
