BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA – Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield was asked about his thoughts on the Space Coast Vipers winning the SSAA State Championship. Mayfield donated over $17,000 to the Vipers football program earlier this year.
Under head coach Jake Owens, the Space Coast Vipers defeated the Bell Bulldogs 21-19 to claim the SSAA State Championship.
Coach Owens led his Vipers to a remarkable comeback season after the team finished 1-8 the season prior.
Before the season began, the program needed equipment or their football seasons for both junior varsity and varsity would’ve been in jeopardy.
Tampa Bay quarterback Baker Mayfield and his foundation made a generous donation to give the team the proper equipment for a season.
BELOW IS THE ORIGINAL STORY:
“After receiving word that a local Florida high school may have to turn kids away from their fall football program due to a lack of equipment, the Baker & Emily Mayfield Foundation donated $17,900 for new shoulder pads and helmets, Go Space Coast Vipers!” said a Baker and Emily Mayfield Foundation spokesperson.
“Big thanks and appreciation to the Baker and Emily Mayfield Foundation and Baker Mayfield for their incredibly thoughtful donation, we are so grateful!” said Space Coast Vipers Head Coach Jake Owens.
The Baker & Emily Mayfield Foundation is an effort born from their deep gratitude and desire to pay it forward and will focus on pillars of success, resilience, and strength. They believe in the human spirit and want to help those who persevere and succeed despite difficult circumstances.
We are beyond thankful for the support of all the communities we have been, and continue to be, a part of and are excited to launch our efforts in Tampa!
Baker Mayfield is a former No. 1 overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft and has played for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers since 2023.
The Space Coast Vipers are 3-2 on the season and are set to face the Celebration Storm on Friday.
