The Heavenbound Christian League (HCL) kicks off its Silver Legacy Week on Friday with a high-profile Exposure Camp, headlined by Super Bowl champion Ainias Smith.
A product of Dulles High School and Texas A&M, Smith recently wrapped up his rookie season with the Philadelphia Eagles. But before the NFL spotlight, he was deeply rooted in a mission that hits closer to home—HCL, the faith-based organization founded by his parents.
The Heavenbound Christian League serves the Greater Houston area, empowering student-athletes and their families through mentorship, character development, and athletic training—all grounded in faith.
Smith, joined by fellow HCL alumni Ross Blacklock and Leon O’Neal, sat down with VYPE’s Matt Malatesta to reflect on their football journeys—and the impact that HCL has had on their lives, both on and off the field.
From little league dreams to NFL realities, the trio credits HCL not just for athletic guidance, but for shaping their values and vision for the future.
For information on the camp, fund-raiser and dinner, please go to Heavenbound Christian League.
