Lee s Ally Welfel: So Much More Than A Cancer Survivor Thursday, February 4, 2021 - by George Starr
Ally Welfel
Unmistakably, what captures the attention of most about Ally Welfel is an 18-year-old girl with a big smile and very little hair. She is always with the Lee basketball team in practice and games. Ally is a young lady who has shown so much courage in her fight back from cancer.
Surrounded by Christian faith: Ally attended (Nashville) Goodpasture, a Christian school, and a place where she could be surrounded by faith. Lee basketball coaches Marty Rowe and Jan Spangler recruited this 5-foot-10 athlete, whom they felt could step in and immediately help the program. “Lee gave me a similar feel as Goodpasture, a place where I could continue to grow spiritually. Lee has supported me through this difficult time. I know God has placed me here for a reason,” she proclaimed.
