Faith Wolfley
Special Guest Speaker

Faith Wolfley is not easy to sum up — and she’ll be the first to tell you she’s still not done adding to the list. A US Air Force veteran, lifelong competitor, and community builder from the Pittsburgh area, Faith has spent her entire life refusing to quit. At 11, she won the long jump at the Arco Jesse Owens Games. At 14, she walked into a karate studio and never looked back — earning her black belt at 18, the youngest female in her school’s history to do it. She went on to compete in over 100 karate tournaments, 2-time AAU National Champion, Olympic weightlifting, powerlifting, bodybuilding, and Muay Thai kickboxing — sometimes entering the men’s division just because no women showed up. For 24 years, she owned and operated a martial arts and sports center in Bridgeville, PA, training athletes from local youth to NFL and NHL professionals. Widow of Pittsburgh Steelers legend and broadcaster Craig Wolfley, Faith is a mother of four, step-mother of two, grandmother of six, current youth football coach with the Pittsburgh Steelers Youth Football Camps, and a woman of deep faith who believes that every hard thing in her life happened for her, not to her.
