Honoring a legacy. Launching a mission. Investing in the next generation.


This is More Than a Moment

Laced in Legacy is more than an event—it’s a turning point.

What began as a way to honor Anthony Jolly through a single scholarship is growing into something bigger: a foundation built to create lasting impact for student athletes and our community.

Anthony’s energy, leadership, and ability to bring people together left a mark that continues to live on through everyone who knew him. This event is about carrying that forward—together.

A New Chapter Begins

During this special evening, we will officially launch the Anthony Jolly Foundation—expanding our mission beyond a single scholarship into a platform that supports student athletes through leadership, perseverance, and community.

We will also proudly announce our 2026 scholarship recipient, recognizing a student who embodies the same values Anthony lived every day.

What to Expect

  • Foundation Purpose

  • 2026 scholarship recipient

  • Tribute video honoring Anthony’s legacy

  • Short program and remarks

  • Networking with community, supporters, and friends

  • Opportunities to get involved and support the mission
