On Tuesday, July 8th, a group of Slicer student-athletes attended the 2025 IHSAA Student Leadership Conference in Indianapolis. The conference was held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and featured multiple activities for the student-athletes to participate in. The students heard a keynote address from motivational speaker Missy West, participated in "Rule the Road" - a joint safety demonstration from the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute and Alliance Highway Safety, heard stories from former athletes Steve Emt and Fletcher Cleaves, listened to a motivational talk from Omari Pearson, and took part in the IMS Experience - where they were able to ride around the track and hear about the history of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
