Varghese Summersett Teams Up With Ravens’ Wide Receiver Tylan Wallace

Varghese Summersett was honored to sponsor the Tylan Wallace Football Camp again this year at South Hills High School.

Wallace, a wide receiver for the Baltimore Ravens, hosted his camp on Saturday, May 25, at his high school alma mater in Fort Worth. This was the third year Wallace has hosted the free camp for youth ages 6 to 12.

“I host a free camp because I want the kids to come out and have fun and to see someone who grew up in Fort Worth, just like them, and achieved his dreams,” Wallace has said. “I want to show them that if you work hard and believe in yourself, you can achieve anything—no matter where you come from.”

Athlete’s First, a premier NFL management firm, contacted Varghese Summersett last year to see if it would partner with Wallace and help sponsor the free camp for about 150 young athletes.

“Tylan provides mentorship, opportunity, inspiration, and a memorable experience to the campers,” the agency’s representative wrote. “We would love for you to be part of it.”

Benson Varghese, managing partner at Varghese Summersett, didn’t hesitate. Like Wallace, he and his team are passionate about giving back to the local community.

“We jumped at the chance again this year,” Varghese said. “It’s a great opportunity to partner with an NFL star who grew up in Fort Worth, while also supporting young athletes in our community.”

Ty Stimpson, a partner in Varghese Summersett’s personal injury division, was on-site last year to get to know the campers and their families. This year, several of the firm’s marketing team – Melody Lanier, Mary Ellen Pratt and Olivia Parker – stopped by to hand out backpacks and water bottles for the kids.

“The passion and commitment Tylan has for his community is inspiring, and we’re happy to play a small part in that,” said Stimpson, a former linebacker at Baylor University.

Wallace and his identical twin brother, Tracin, were born in Fort Worth, where they displayed amazing athletic athleticism and leadership at a young age. They attended Westcreek and Bruce Shulkey elementary schools and Wedgwood Middle School before graduating from South Hills High School, where the receiver-quarterback twins were one of the most highly touted duos in the state.

The brothers both committed to Oklahoma State University, where Wallace established himself as one of college football’s elite wide receivers. Unfortunately, his brother suffered an injury that ended his football career. In 2021, Wallace was selected by the Baltimore Ravens in the fourth round of the NFL draft.

Wallace went viral during last year’s football season when he returned a thrilling 76-yard punt return for a touchdown in overtime to secure at 37-31 victory for the Baltimore Ravens against the Los Angeles Rams.

In addition to being a star on the field, Wallace is also a leader off of it. He is passionate about giving back to the community that supported him and his family since childhood.

“It’s important to me to give back to the community because the city helped me become the person I am today. I want to be able to show everyone that achieving your dreams is possible. You just have to work for it!”
