The Board of Directors of the Knoxville Panther Scholarship Foundation is announcing the new Rick Roberts Memorial Scholarship presented by Sundance Realty.

Ryan and Sara Roberts are the owners of Sundance Realty in Knoxville.  Ryan is a 1992 graduate of Knoxville High School and Sara is a 1996 graduate of Interstate 35 Highschool.   They have three children; RJ, Reese, and Regan. RJ is a 2019 graduate of KHS and Reese is a 2023 graduate of KHS. Their youngest son Regan will graduate in 2026.  Ryan’s parents are also KHS graduates and longtime Panther supporters. They have named the scholarship after Ryan’s dad, Rick Roberts.  

According to a release from the scholarship foundation, Rick had a passion for the community and the Knoxville Panthers. The Roberts family are firm believers in giving others a hand up and believe in the work the Knoxville Scholarship Foundation is doing to help students become positive forces in the world.  As owners of Sundance Realty, Ryan and Sara firmly believe in giving back to the community that supports their business and are proud to be able to present this scholarship.
