(Lith) Webb is an accomplished athlete who is from Windsor, Ontario,
Canada. She attended California University of Pennsylvania on a full-ride scholarship
where she achieved her academic success with a Bachelor of Arts. B.A, and athletically
became a revered, member of the women’s softball team. Lith is a four-time first-team all
American player, two-time NCAA champion and was immortalized with a bronze statue
on campus, with two of her teammates for back to back championships. Lith was a
member of the Canadian Olympic Team and was inducted into the Hall of Fame at both
her alma mater and Softball Canada. She is meek in nature and attributes all her
accolades to the hard work instilled by her parents; listening to her mentor, Coach Rick
Bertagnolli; and, being able to be a member of some dynamic teams.
In 2009, Lith was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. She utilizes what can be considered
debilitating, as an ability that continues to drive her forward with vigour. Her passion is
helping young people actualize their athletic goals through mentoring, coaching on and
off the field, and providing practical tools to improve skill level, whether in life or sports.
She currently works with various sports organizations as a Guest Coach.
