Help Nico and Ty Holmes Take the Ultimate Step to the Next Level!

From the time they first strapped on helmets and stepped onto the gridiron at 9 years old, Nico (#31) and Ty (#14) Holmes have shared a singular, unyielding passion: football. Through years of early morning practices, grueling off-season conditioning, and leading their

teammates under the Friday night lights, they have always aimed for the top.

Now, as seniors at Monument Valley High School (Class of 2027), all of their hard work has culminated in a massive national honor. Nico and Ty have both been officially selected to compete in the prestigious Blue-Grey All-American Bowl in Dallas, Texas, from December 19-21, 2026!

This elite event brings together the top high school players from across the country to compete in an NFL stadium in front of division college scouts and recruiters. For small-town student-athletes with big-time dreams, this is a life-changing opportunity to gain the exposure needed to elevate to the next level and secure college athletic scholarships.

More Than Just Athletes

What makes Nico and Ty truly special isn’t just their performance on the field—it’s who they are off of it. Both boys are fierce leaders in their school community and hold GPAs over 3.5. They embody the true definition of student-athletes, showing that dedication in the classroom is just as vital as execution on the turf.

Where the Funds Will Go

Sending two elite athletes to a national bowl game halfway across the country comes with significant financial hurdles. We are setting up this campaign to help ease the burden on their family and make sure they can focus entirely on competing. All funds raised will go directly toward:

Mandatory Bowl Registration Fees: Official player packages, jersey/gear kits, and event access.

Travel & Transportation: Round-trip travel expenses to Dallas, TX, and local transit.

Lodging & Accommodations: Safe housing close to the venue for the duration of the 3-day event.

Nutritional Meals: Keeping them properly fueled and hydrated to perform at their absolute peak.

How You Can Help

Donate: Every single dollar counts. Whether it’s $10 or $100, your contribution helps bridge the financial gap and brings Nico and Ty one step closer to Dallas.

Share: If you aren’t able to donate, you can still make a huge impact by sharing this link with your friends, family, coworkers, and on your social media networks.

Nico and Ty have spent nearly a decade preparing for a moment like this. Let’s come together as a community, back our Monument Valley Mustangs, and show these two outstanding young men that we believe in their bright futures.

Thank you so much for your generosity, love, and support! Go Mustangs! ⚪
