Welcome to Faith Friday, the weekly digital series from Extra Inning Softball that highlights the purpose behind the player — and the coach. As we continue leaning into faith-driven, on-the-go content, Faith Friday brings short hits of inspiration, reflection, and real conversations that remind us who we play for — on and off the field.

This week, three-time Olympic gold medalist Leah Amico joins us for a powerful conversation about identity, gratitude, and using your platform to point others to Christ.

EXTRA INNING SOFTBALL

A cornerstone of Team USA’s dynasty, Amico helped capture Olympic gold in 1996, 2000 and 2004, added World Championship titles in 1998 and 2002, and won Pan American Games gold in 1999 and 2003. She’s a six-time ASA All-American and one of the most decorated hitters to ever wear the red, white and blue.

Whether you’re a coach, player or parent, this Faith Friday will lift your eyes and lighten your step. Tap in, be encouraged, and carry Leah Amico’s reminder into your week — play bold, love well, and keep first things first.
