Gloucester County College’s athletic program and teams have received three national awards for performances both on the field and in the classroom.

The National Alliance of Two-Year College Athletic Administrators (NATYCAA) honored the Roadrunners as the third best non-scholarship National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) program in the country at its annual convention in Dallas. For the Roadrunners, this was the second straight top three finishes in the NATYCAA Awards Program for Overall Program Excellence. Nine GCC programs contributed points from NJCAA national championship tournaments and meets. Second place finishes by the women’s soccer, women’s cross country and baseball teams helped lead the way for GCC.

The Roadrunners men and women outdoor track & field teams were also recognized for their performances in the classroom as the NJCAA National Academic Team of the Year. GCC track & field student athletes boasted the best combined team grade-point-averages of any squad in the country. The GCC softball team also received honorable mention for being one of the top academic teams in the nation.
