Reading Schools is bursting with Blue Devil pride as we celebrate Tony Pike’s induction into the University of Cincinnati Football Hall of Fame!
Tony, a 2004 graduate of Reading High School, left his mark on the field, court, and diamond. He was a key part of back-to-back CHL football championships (2002 and 2003) and a member of the 2003 Division III State Champion basketball team. On the baseball field, fans will never forget his grand slam and three-run homer in the same inning against rival Wyoming.
Tony went on to lead the UC Bearcats to back-to-back Big East titles in 2008 and 2009, with appearances in the International Bowl, Orange Bowl, and Sugar Bowl — helping elevate Bearcat football on the national stage.
Once a Blue Devil, always a Blue Devil. Congratulations, Tony! #ReadingPride #BlueDevilStrong #BearcatLegend
