Colett Rampf '18 (women's cross country/track) Colett Rampf's Hall of Fame career as a former Saint Leo women's cross country and track student-athlete stands as a remarkable journey of athletic excellence and academic achievement. A six-time All-American, Rampf's brilliance shone across both Cross Country and Track, earning her the prestigious honor three times in each discipline. Her dedication to both athletic and academic pursuits was further exemplified by her distinction as a two-time Academic All-American. A trailblazer in the Sunshine State Conference (SSC), Rampf achieved the extraordinary feat of becoming the only athlete in SSC history to secure four consecutive SSC Runner of the Year titles. As a four-time SSC Champion, she asserted her dominance on the track, a legacy solidified in her senior year when she clinched victory in every race leading up to the National Championship, where she finished eighth. Rampf's South Region championship win in 2016, coupled with a 14th-place finish at the NCAA Championships, showcased her national prowess.

Terlynn "Chanita" Olds '98 (women's basketball) Terlynn "Chanita" Olds was a standout forward on the women's basketball team and later came back to Saint Leo where she was the head coach from 2005-2011. She represented the Green and Gold with integrity and honor on and off the court and represented the core values that Saint Leo expects out of their very best. As a player, Olds stepped up in times of adversity, including when the team was struggling to fill out a roster and many nights had to carry the load and play the entire game as a post player. The physical demand on low post players may be as demanding as any position in any sport. As an athlete, she amazed many as her desire to play was evident in her competitiveness. Olds served as a team captain for Saint Leo. During her playing career, she led the team to its first winning record in program history and also a fourth place finish in the SSC, the highest finish in program history.

Following stops at Spring Hill College, Florida A&M University, Flagler College and Palm Beach State College, Olds returned to Saint Leo in 2005. She took over a Saint Leo women's basketball program that had won three total games in its previous three seasons and laid the foundation for the program you see today that is competing for conference titles and berths in the NCAA tournament. The Saint Leo women's basketball team would not be in the position they are in today if it wasn't for the time and dedication that Coach Olds took in building the program. She has a one-of-a-kind work ethic, and this showed in her play on the court, the steps she took towards the transformation of the women's program has continued to propel her through a successful post coaching career as an administrator and Athletic Director. Olds has demonstrated incredible leadership that has shown as she has participated in numerous NCAA leadership programs and served on campus and conference committees.
