The Roadrunners continued this tradition by winning the CAANJ Cup in 1998-99, 1999-2000, 2001-02, 2005-06, 2006-07, 2007-08, and 2008-09.

A strong supporter of women’s athletics and gender equity, Case has been instrumental in the development of intercollegiate programs in women’s soccer, softball and women’s basketball. Under Case’s guidance, the women’s tennis program has prospered and the women’s cross country and track & field programs have risen to national prominence.

Gloucester County College’s facilities have undergone a major face-lift during Case’s tenure. A new fitness/wellness center, installation of an outdoor irrigation system, and major improvements to all outdoor playing fields are all part of the improvement in athletic facilities that have occurred at the college under Case’s supervision.
