JSC Announces Two New Varsity Sports, SHAPE Upgrades

By Charlie Viana

NAC By 2010, JSC will be fielding 12 varsity athletic teams as opposed to the 10 that represent the college today. Men’s Golf and Women’s Volleyball will be added to JSC athletics.

Men’s Golf will be offered as a spring varsity sport, with Women’s Volleyball in the fall.

“We looked at a number of factors for adding these two sports ? cost and impact on facilities,” says Dean of Students Dave Bergh.

A variety of input was sought, including perspectives from admissions, the SGA, and the athletic department, to gauge student interest in adding these two new sports, according to Bergh.

“We are phasing the new sports in now to see it take off and we will now have time to make any corrections if needed,” he said.

Some facilities upgrading is in store as well. Some of the $9.2 million loan approved by the VSC board of trustees in October will go towards upgrades in the SHAPE facility, to be done between spring and summer of 2009.

The primary project in the 17-year-old SHAPE facility will be a new floor and bleachers in the varsity gym.

Other improvements are slated as well, including upgrades to the weight room and the mezzanine.
