Colton Sayers
Colton Sayers is a student athlete at the University of Findlay studying Occupational Therapy and Psychology and is a self-published author.
He is from Cincinnati and was recruited to Findlay for his swimming prowess and swam the butterfly and distance freestyle for four years at the University. He has completed his Bachelors of Science degree and is in the Master’s part of his program.
He has two younger brothers and his mother that live in Cincinnati. His father passed away when Colton was 14 from ALS and watching his father’s struggle and journey and subsequent life events inspired Colton to write a book. It is titled, “Journey: A testimony in the search for meaning in the life God has created for us”. It is self published, available on Lulu for 13.00 and he has sold 50 copies to date. He hopes his story and experiences can “help those who maybe likewise struggling. Give them hope so they can endure. That they may know God is always with them.”
His role model is his mom who took care of dad and raised three boys basically by herself. “Her strength taught me to be successful and was a positive role model.”
Colton’s words of advice are, “God brings you to it. He will bring you through it.”
