Celebrating the first semester of 2025–2026, our Filling The Lane (FTL) student-athletes have shown excellence both in the classroom and on the court. With an average GPA of 3.42 and many earning Honor Roll or Principal’s List status, these students exemplify discipline, focus, and leadership. At FTL, we invest in the whole student, supporting growth in academics, athletics, and life.

From $25 deposits to a doctorate, Dr. Kelley Curtis Dekle’s journey shows the power of mentorship, consistency, and belief. As one of the first Filling The Lane students, Kelley’s success reflects how small investments can grow into lifelong impact. His words—“You were the inspiration, Dr. Miller”—remind us why we build, mentor, and dream with the next generation.

The 2025 Lucille Davis Burton Scholarship Banquet was a night of legacy, leadership, and life-changing impact. Hosted by Filling The Lane at AdventHealth Fieldhouse, the event awarded over $10,000 in scholarships and gifts, honored standout students like Princeton Wroy, and featured a powerful keynote from George Tinsley. More than a celebration—it was an investment in the future.
