Coach Murph Scholarship

Applicants must be a senior at West Forsyth High School who demonstrates the same qualities as Coach Murph: good character, hard work, leadership, and the ability to overcome challenges while a leader on the field of play, in the classroom, and in the community. Preference is given to applicants with unmet financial needs in paying for their degree and applicants who have a connection to Coach Murph.

Pat Murphy, affectionately called “Coach Murph”, is considered the #1 athletics fan among students and staff at West Forsyth High School. But he is so much more. Coach Murph has spent nearly three decades supporting the coaching staff and students at West Forsyth. He attends every practice and game, helps in between as he can, and truly brightens the lives of those who have the privilege of interacting with him. Coach Murph has faced the greatest of challenges, and yet, his outlook on life is nothing short of inspirational.
