STERLING, Kan. — Sterling College will welcome Leah Amico, professional and inspirational speaker on Friday, April 14, for two special events.
Leah Amico has over 20 years of motivational speaking.
Amico will deliver the Chapel message at 10 a.m. in Culbertson Auditorium in Spencer Hall. She will also deliver a message at the Keynote Event at 7:30 p.m. in the Gleason Center on the campus of Sterling College.
The Keynote Event is free but requires a ticket. Reserve a ticket at scwarriors.com/sterling-college-ticketing-central.
“We could not ask for a better way to end the first year of the Warrior Women Leadership Coalition (WWLC),” K.C. Bassett, associate athletic director, said. “We have enjoyed getting to know Ms. Amico through the planning of this event and are excited to have her speak on campus and share her story with others. It will be a fantastic event and we hope people take advantage of this great opportunity.”
Amico is a three-time Olympic gold medalist with USA Softball, a two-time World Champion, a National Softball Hall of Fame Inductee in 2009, and a three-time national champion at The University of Arizona.
At Arizona, she was also honored as a three-time First Team All-American and a three-time First Team Academic All-American for her excellence both on the field and in the classroom.
Known for being one of the most clutch hitters of all time, Amico still holds the record for highest batting average in the Women’s College World Series.
Amico is also a college softball analyst with ESPN and Westwood One Sports, where she imparts her love and knowledge of the game to many fans across the world.
Experiencing triumphs and overcoming trials taught her how to perform in pressure situations and helped her climb to new heights of success. The lessons Amico learned during her collegiate and Olympic journeys have helped her to pass on knowledge that can be applied in any career field.
Area high schools are encouraged to bring their student groups to the 10 a.m.
The Chapel message will be followed by lunch with current Sterling College Warriors.
High school guests may purchase lunch in the College’s cafeteria for a discounted rate of $5.
