When I was a high school quarterback, my team was lucky enough to get to play in the New Orleans Super Dome. I’ll never forget what an amazing feeling it was to play in a professional stadium.

That's how the idea for the PeyBack Classic began. I wanted Indianapolis high school teams to feel that same sense of pride that I had when I ran onto that field with my teammates. I also wanted a chance to pay back local high school athletic programs for providing such wonderful opportunities to these kids.

Check out the links below to find out more information on this year’s PeyBack Classic and the success we had with previous games.
