@BlazeBerlowitz ~ Love you and proud of you big dog! Cushing to Nashville. New Mexico State to the SEC. Two years waiting your turn behind a Heisman finalist. In this world you stayed loyal to @VandyFootball and faith. Tonight it is your huddle, your first snap as the guy. You did not get this job because it was convenient. You got it because you stayed ready, loyal and consistent when nobody was watching. That is the part that lasts. Play free. Trust what you have already proven. Lead the men next to you. When it gets loud, settle the pocket and go to work. ~Senior Chief Tom George “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” — Joshua 1:9 @QBimpact @davidpollack47

Sonia Wiltz Smith - Meet @TristanBerglan and @JaXon_Smith_QB , the Camp IMPACT - Sidney Smith AWARD for Leadership Excellence! Tristan’s parents, Iman Hefner Dangora and Dominic Dangora. Jaxon’s parents Brett Smith and Gina LeeAnn Smith To the Parents- who raised these leaders the right way: Thank you. You poured into them long before they stepped on this field. You taught them discipline in the early mornings, integrity when no one was watching, and courage to stand firm in a world that pulls the other direction. The Leadership Award is a special recognition given during the final Awards session. It honors one or more athletes who stand out not just for athletic performance, but for embodying the core values of the camp: leadership, character, discipline, accountability, and growth — on and off the field. The traits instilled in me and many other Sailors by Senior Chief Sidney Smith. What It Means! This award aligns perfectly with @QBimpact mission: developing dynamic athletes and better people. Camp IMPACT emphasizes that football is a vehicle for building leaders who compete with honor, serve others, and live with conviction. The Leadership Award celebrates athletes who: • Lead by example — Demonstrate initiative, encourage teammates, and maintain a positive attitude even under pressure • Show character and integrity — Display trust, courage, humility, and sportsmanship. This includes helping younger or less experienced campers, owning mistakes, and prioritizing team success. • Embody camp pillars — Things like “iron sharpens iron” (Proverbs 27:17), relentless work ethic, faith-driven purpose, and off-field maturity • Make an impact — Influence others positively, show growth throughout the 3-day event, and represent the “better person off the field” philosophy that sets Camp Impact apart.  It’s not necessarily the “MVP” for pure talent or stats — it’s often for the camper who elevates the entire group through leadership qualities that last beyond the camp. Thank you boys for being different, Senior Chief Tom George @QBiFlorida @qbimpacttexas @QBimpactCarolna @QBimpactHI @QBiOklahoma @QBi_Louisiana
