The New Mexico High School Coaches Association initiated the Francis Abeyta Kickoff Scholarship Program in the fall of 1991. It is an award given to the sons and/or daughters of coaches who have a minimum of five years membership in the Coaches Association. The scholarship has been named in memory of Francis Abeyta, who coached at Santa Fe Indian School, and was a member of the NMHSCA Board of Directors at the time of his sudden death in April of 1996.
