PIKE COUNTY, Ga. — A crash in Pike County on Saturday night claimed the life of a high school senior.

On Sunday afternoon, Pike County High School identified the student as Peyton Rivera.

“Peyton had a smile that would light up the room. He was a leader on and off the field, and he made our school better just with his presence. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family, students, staff, and community during this incredibly difficult time,” Principal Kevin Huffstetler wrote.

His football team also posted a tribute to him on social media.
