2024 Rock Hill Blue Hawks Football Coaching Staff
Program Thank you to Rock Nation
Welcome Rock Nation Fans, Parents, Supporters, Visitors and Community to the 2023 Football Season! It is the best time of the year! We continue to grow stronger this year by leaning on our school’s core values: ICSEEU, LEO and our 3 pillars: Accountability, Toughness, and Love. Most importantly, we continue to grow stronger with our program, school, and community unity.
Our program values are all centered and revolve around our Prosper ISD Athletic Mission Statement, “Athletics is an extension of the educational setting at all times”. We provide the most important values and lessons through athletics while developing the overall student into a better athlete and a better person. We use this blueprint to mold our athletes into young men of exceptional character. These values will allow our Athletes to win on the field and in life as fantastic husbands, fathers, and future leaders of our country.
Our teams and coaches have had an outstanding Offseason, Spring, and Summer leading up to this season. All our athletes have done a tremendous job of buying into our motto of LEO! It’s not about me, it is about the person next to me. Extraordinary things happen when no one cares who gets credit. I could not be prouder of the unselfish mindset of our team in the past six months.
Thank you to our _#_ seniors who have poured into the program over the last 3 years. First to four, they continue to raise the bar and leave a proud legacy at Rock Hill High School. Our football coaching staff are truly the men responsible for setting our wheels into motion. They always strive for championship - worthy values. Thank you, Rhana Ramos, Derek Thompson, Jesse Johnson, Kamm Coker, Brian Smith, Presley McMahan, Carter Severson, Stephen King, Nicolas Summerfield, Billy Farris, Ricky London, Seneca Wallace, Tyler Bailey, and Cody Martin-you truly are the greatest staff in Texas. Thank you to Tyler Fox, Emily Karns, and Keisha Williams. Our training staff is the best in the state. A loving thank you to my wife of 20 years, Jonith. She has stood by my side during this whole journey, and she is the
definition of a great coach’s wife. To my son, Brady (8 th grade), and my daughter, Brynlee (5th grade), thank you for being all in on this journey. I love you.

A special thank you to Prosper ISD Superintendent, Dr. Holly Ferguson, Deputy Superintendent, Dr. Greg Bradley, our Executive Director of Athletics, Coach Valerie Little, Assistant Athletic Director Michael Sain, Nick Sharp-Athletics Events Supervisor, and the Prosper ISD Board of Trustees for their leadership and their undying support of both academic and extracurricular opportunities to all the students in Prosper ISD.

Mr. Faris and our Booster Club Officers have put an enormous amount of work into our program.

Last, but certainly not least, we would like to thank our Rock Hill Administration for all their support. We sincerely appreciate the support of Rock Hill High School Principal, Mr. Terry Mouton, and our entire Assistant Principal Team. Our teachers go above and beyond to help all students exceed the high academic and athletic standards that have been set here at Rock Hill High School and Prosper ISD.
