The Dairy Alliance, a nonprofit funded by dairy farm families in the Southeast, has spotlighted North Carolina's top high school quarterback Faizon Brandon and his mother, Rolanda, as part of its Milk's Got Game® campaign. The initiative celebrates the people behind the players, emphasizing the role of family and real dairy milk in fueling athletic success.
Faizon Brandon, ranked as the #1 recruit in the 2025 class, is known for his leadership, determination, and drive on the field. The campaign features the mother-son duo sharing how real dairy milk helps Faizon stay strong and prepared for both football and life. "Faizon's story is one of discipline and determination," said Joanne Engelhardt-Risko, Vice President of Strategic Marketing at The Dairy Alliance. "With his mom's encouragement and a commitment to staying strong, he continues to set a powerful example for student-athletes everywhere. Milk's Got Game® celebrates that kind of resilience and family bond."
Real dairy milk provides 13 essential nutrients, including high-quality protein, which Faizon credits for helping him maintain energy and strength. "Football has taught me the value of preparation and consistency," said Brandon. "I'm always training, studying, and taking care of my body. Real dairy milk helps me stay strong and ready for whatever comes next." His mother, Rolanda, added, "Since his first steps, real dairy milk has kept him strong, energized, and focused."
Milk's Got Game® highlights student-athletes across the Southeast who are fueled by family, community, and real dairy milk. The campaign underscores how dairy supports performance from early morning practices to Friday night lights. For more information about The Dairy Alliance, visit https://thedairyalliance.com.
