Welcome from the President
Greetings:
JJC's student-athletes, coaches and administrative staff are grateful for your attendance at this event. While the value of community college athletics is not measured by the number of participants at games, our student athletes and coaches truly appreciate and respond to fan support such as yours.
Annually, our coaches face the challenge of preparing a new group of student athletes for field competition. The demands on a student athlete’s time, coupled with classroom competition, make for a rigorous extracurricular event. For serious student-athletes, success in our campus classrooms and on our playing fields generally translates to success as they move on to four-year colleges and universities. To this end, we are very proud of the academic achievements of our athletes.
JJC teams are consistently very competitive. This year should be no exception thanks to a fine group of students and dedicated and outstanding coaches. We invite you to come back to cheer on and support JJC teams as they strive for continued athletic excellence. May your visit on our campus be a memorable one. GO WOLVES!

Welcome from the Vice President of Student Development
Welcome to Joliet Junior College and intercollegiate athletics. We value the opportunity for our students to participate in intercollegiate athletics and we are very proud of our athletic program. The hard work and dedication of our athletes and coaches has led to success both locally and nationally.
Athletics offers a wonderful opportunity for our students to enjoy their sport and the challenge of competition, develop habits of discipline and hard work toward the pursuit of a goal, and learn the value of sportsmanship, leadership, dedication, and teamwork. These are attributes that will serve them while they are at JJC as well as in their future academic, personal, and work lives.
We are grateful for your support of our student athletes and hope that you will be able to attend our athletic events. The enthusiasm and support of fans helps to make these contests fun and exciting. Whether you are a family member, friend, classmate, or member of the college or community we appreciate you helping us to make these events a positive experience for everyone by showing respect and courtesy to all of the participants - athletes, coaches, officials, and other fans.
Thanks for coming. Have fun!

Welcome from the Director of Athletics
We are very proud of our athletic department here at Joliet Junior College. Our coaches and athletes work hard to put a good product on the field or court. From national championships to academic All-Americans, Joliet Junior College has developed a rich tradition of successful teams and athletes.
We could not achieve our goals without the support of our administration, faculty, and support staff personnel. The Joliet community has been there for us as well. And finally, we need to thank the parents of our athletes for their dedication to their son or daughter and Joliet Junior College.
On behalf of our coaches and athletes, I thank you for your continuing loyalty to JJC Athletics
Wayne L. King, Jr.
Director of Athletics
