Introducing the 2025 Youth Athlete of the Year!
After weeks of fierce competition showcasing so many talented young athletes, and incredible support from their fans, we’re excited to introduce the champion!
From football to lacrosse to basketball, Tripp is a dedicated athlete who loves being challenged. With David Robinson and Jim Everett as idols, he has big aspirations and brings energy and teamwork to every game.
As champion, Tripp earned 25k to invest in his future, and you can catch him in a 3BRAND advertisement in the December issue of Sports Illustrated.
From everyone at Colossal and the Youth Athlete of the Year Team, thank you so much for joining us. Russell Wilson has one final heartfelt message for you:

Along with the entire community, Chantz Mccarthyc and their amazing fans generously helped raise a staggering $21,660,605, which will be split equally between the Why Not You Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to education, children's health, and fighting poverty, and the V Foundation as they Accelerate Victory Over Cancer® and save lives.
