As one of the faculty athletics representatives at CC, I am excited to spend this week celebrating the academic, athletic, and co-curricular accomplishments of our student-athletes and sharing information on Division III.

Every other day this week, I will be sending out short emails highlighting CC student-athletes. Today, we’re highlighting student-athletes from our Women’s Cross Country, Women’s Lacrosse, Men’s Basketball, and Men’s Soccer teams. Read more about their team’s recent academic accomplishments:

If you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me or my fellow faculty athletics representative, Kat Miller-Stevens.

Enjoy this showcase of our student-athletes and go Tigers 🐯!
