St. Joseph's College Welcomes Former New York Yankee Jim Leyritz

PATCHOGUE, N.Y. – NOVEMBER 4, 2013 – The Student Government Association at St. Joseph’s College (SJC) is pleased to welcome former New York Yankee Jim Leyritz to present a lecture titled “Second Chances: Everyone Loves a Comeback Story.” The lecture will take place on Wednesday, November 13 at 7 p.m. in the D’Ecclesiis Auditorium on the College’s Long Island Campus in Patchogue.

Leyritz played 11 years of major league baseball with seven of those seasons as a New York Yankee (1990-96, 1999-2000). Leyritz is most known for hitting clutch post-season homeruns to help the Yankees beat the Atlanta Braves in both 1996 and 1999. He now works as the director of marketing and new business development at On Top Visibility, a full-service B2B web design and marketing company on Long Island.
