Letter from the Athletic Director
On behalf of the Johnson State College Athletic Department, I encourage you to inquire about Johnson State as a place to further your athletic and academic career. Our tradition of intercollegiate sports spans five decades in which we have fielded regionally competitive and nationally competitive athletic teams in basketball, soccer, cross country running, women's softball, men's lacrosse and tennis.
During that time, the theme has been one of commitment and dedication to our student athletes and athletic staff. While championship teams come and go, we believe the most important component of any intercollegiate athletic program is the quality of the educational experience. It is our desire and plan that, while attending Johnson State, you will develop lasting friendships, establish a healthy lifestyle and be challenged, both individually and collectively, within the framework of a competitive athletic experience.
The cornerstone of our athletic philosophy is that students can balance the pursuit of athletic and academic excellence simultaneously. Our staff is committed to providing everything needed to reach your potential athletically, and the greatest measure of success is the graduation of our varsity athletes.
During your career at JSC, we hope you will do everything possible to make your experience enjoyable and successful. The athletic staff can be an invaluable resource for advice, guidance and assistance in academic, social and athletic areas. Your college experience will be enhanced if you utilize all the resources available to you.
Good luck with your college search and best wishes.
Yours in good health,
Barbara Lougee
Director of Athletics and Recreation
