Positively Impacting the Future of Mountain Lakes Football
The mission of the HERD Alumni Foundation is to support the Mountain Lakes Football program through fundraising and community-building efforts. We aim to accomplish this by reuniting current and former players, coaches, and football families who share the same desire to see the HERD’s tradition of excellence continue for generations to come. The results of this support are tangible and can be seen with the additions of new equipment, uniforms, field upgrades, and scholarships; all of which were made possible through donations by alumni, family, and friends.

We are excited to announce the winners of the 2022 Wilkins-Roche Herdsman Scholarship, presented by the HERD Alumni Foundation. They are: Ethan Merritt, Dylan Brown, Jimmy Elliott, and Nico Dunn (l-r with Coach Charlie Roche). This scholarship was created to recognize the exceptional dedication of Coaches Doug Wilkins and Charlie Roche to instilling strong character in the young men who have participated in the Mountain Lakes High School “HERD” football program. Through their emphasis on integrity, courage, fortitude, honesty, and loyalty, they have made significant contributions to the education and growth of these student-athletes. The scholarship is awarded to the Herdsmen who beat embody these outstanding qualities of character. Congrats, gentlemen! 🦬
