Have you heard of Grace Lyons-Turk? You may know her as Grace Lyons, the five-year starting shortstop and team captain for the Oklahoma Sooners Softball team, who gave God ALL the Glory during the press conference after winning the Championship Title.

Grace and her team's dedication to using their status as a team to give God the Glory in everything they do is truly inspiring. How do you create this type of culture on an elite college team?

“People ask how does the culture get like that—How are you guys known for singing about Jesus after a game?” Lyons said. “It has to happen within the circle, in the team. You have to have someone who's willing to stand up for that, but then you need others coming alongside them who want to be a part.”

Post-college Lyons is setting up the next steps with FCA and is ready to transition from college sports into college ministry.

The Fellowship of Christian Athletes’ exciting local radio program, Heart of the Athlete, airs Saturdays at 9 am MST on KBXL 94.1 FM. The show is hosted by local FCA Director, Ken Lewis. This program is a great opportunity to listen to local athletes and coaches share their lives, combining sports with their faith in Jesus Christ each week!

Our relationships will demonstrate steadfast commitment to Jesus Christ and His Word through Integrity, Serving, Teamwork and Excellence.
