Signing Day with LCHS Senior, Luke Featherolf!
Congratulations to Luke Fetherolf, a senior at LCHS, who signed a letter of intent with Union Commonwealth University, located in Barbourville, KY, on Friday, February 27th, to further his education and football career. The signing ceremony took place in the LCHS library, attended by Luke's coaches, teammates, and family, to celebrate the memorable event.
LCHS Football Coach Alan Short delivered heartfelt remarks reflecting on Luke's four-year journey with the LC Bulldogs. “To put it simply, he is one of a kind. I believe everyone in this room would agree that he is an exceptionally talented football player. Moreover, he is an even better person,” he stated. He continued, “Luke, your time as a Bulldog has made a lasting impact on this program. You have elevated the standards, shaped the culture, and represented this community with great pride. We are incredibly proud of you, grateful for your influence, and excited to see you continue to grow, compete, and succeed at the next level.”
Mr. Darin Fetherolf, Luke’s father, expressed his pride in his son's strong faith and work ethic, noting that Luke developed a profound love for sports at a very young age.
In a humble expression of gratitude, Luke shared, "First of all, nothing is possible without God in your life. If you don't have God in your life, you won't be successful. I want to thank all my coaches and teammates for being there for me. My parents, for always putting in the blood, sweat, and tears for me. Nothing is possible without you guys and for you being by my side. And to all my coaches, I just want to thank you guys. Thank you for everything!"
Again, we congratulate Luke on this amazing accomplishment! We wish him the very best in his future endeavors at Union Commonwealth University! #LCisHome

I can’t think of anyone more deserving of this award!”
