In 2001 a scholarship fund was established in memory of Kyle Barden, Brendon Benner, and Milton Carter. Since the inception more than $134,000 in college scholarships have been awarded.

In 2009 the Barden, Benner Carter Memorial Fund extended the award to past Varsity Team players who have chosen to put their post high school education on hold and who now have a sincere desire and willingness to improve their life opportunities through education.
