2026 George Ewen uKnight Cup
It was a great turnout filled with golf, fun and fellowship at the University Club of Kentucky on Monday, July 27, 2026. We are so incredibly grateful to our golfers, sponsors, volunteers and all who helped to make this golf outing a great success for our football team. The day began with player check-in, basket drawing opportunities, and signing up for all the extras, while members of our football team welcomed golfers and assisted them to their carts. Everyone enjoyed a delicious lunch provided by Stein's Catering and before heading out onto the course, LCHS Football Coach David Clark welcomed everyone with Mrs. Kim Ewen, and JoJo Rueff led in prayer. Following play, golfers gathered for refreshments, awards, and prize drawings to wrap up a fantastic day. The weather was sunny with a little Kentucky heat and humidity, but thankfully the rain stayed away, allowing everyone to enjoy a full day out on the course!

George Ewen
George Ewen spent fourteen seasons with Lexington Catholic Football. Originally from Hazard, George graduated from Lafayette High School in 1965. He would graduate from the University of Kentucky with a bachelor’s degree in Education. He would start to connect with Lexington Catholic as a Substitute Teacher.
George, along with his wife Kim and their daughter Andrea all are a part of the Lexington Catholic Family. George and Andrea worked as the videographers for the Lexington Catholic Football Team. But George was so much more than that. There were so many roles that he played for the young men on the team, year after year. From wise sage to Santa Claus, George would be there for you. He would always be there for any of us.
Many of us will always remember a simple message from George. Three one-syllable words that have power. When times are tough, or the day is dragging along. George’s words will speak:
FIND A WAY…
