Thunderdome, Cheese-Dip Fingers, and Why Sylvan Hills Kids Keep Coming Back to FCA Camp

Tuesday, December 2, 2025

In this high-energy episode of Beyond the Huddle, Zach Rose (solo-hosting while Josh recovers from too much turkey) hangs out with Sylvan Hills standouts Lainey White (soccer + tennis) and Tyler Jones (cross-country/track) as they relive the absolute chaos and life-changing moments of FCA Camp.

Expect muddy gaga ball disasters, the legendary Thunderdome, hog ball madness, late-night huddle talks that still have them texting their college huddle leaders at 2 a.m., and why they’ll never look at cheese dip (or their fingers) the same way again after revealing their dream useless superpowers.

They also break down what student-led ministry actually looks like at Sylvan Hills High—early-morning Bible studies, prayer-card service projects, and how to love your teammates when emotions (and golf shots) are running hot.

Real laughs. Real faith. Real Bears. If you’ve ever wondered why these kids keep begging to go back to camp, this is the episode.
