THE STACEY LEVITT WOMEN AND SPORT SCHOLARSHIP
The Stacey Levitt Women and Sport Scholarship is in memory of a very
special 18-year-old woman who was struck down by a car while she was
jogging on Aug. 30, 1995.
She was a superior athlete, a top student, and loved by many. She
participated in sport for the sheer joy of the experience. She loved the
camaraderie, the teamwork, and the competition and she displayed that
love in many sports – swimming, scuba diving, taikwondo, triathlon,
gymnastics and jazz. Stacey always strived to be the best she could be,
and filled her life with joy and meaning.
