Pioneer Jr-Sr High School

Former Pioneer Panther quarterback and defensive back and current University of Notre Dame Fighting Irish linebacker Jack Kiser returned to Royal Center on Sat Aug 24 and shocked the Pioneer Youth Football Teams with his appearance at their practice. The 2018 Indy Star Mr. Football Award Winner surprised the players after their practice with tickets to Notre Dame's football game against Miami (OH) University on Sat Sep 21 at 3:30 PM. This was made possible through DIRECTV, the official sponsor of Notre Dame Athletics. The Royal Center native remembered his youth league, junior high, and varsity football experience and wanted the opportunity to give back to the community which molded and shaped his career.
