Intercollegiate athletics,
both male and female, are an integral part of both the
Division of Health, Physical Education and Recreation and the student
activities program. The College participates in seven intercollegiate sports -
men’s and women’s basketball, baseball, men’s and women’s tennis, women’s softball. Each full-time student is invited and
strongly encouraged to try out for collegiate athletic teams.
The College is a member in
good standing of Region 17 of the Georgia Junior College Athletic Association
and the National Junior College Athletic Association. The “Golden Stallions”
and “Fillies” are always strong competitors against the best two-year college
competition available, and successful academic endeavors are stressed to
athletes. All home athletic contests are free to full-time students.
Supporting the athletics
program and college recruitment through the Student Activities Program is the
Spirit Team. A full-time student is eligible to try out for these groups.
