FROM THE PRESIDENT Welcome Kankakee Community College student athletes, parents, and Cavalier fans! On behalf of the KCC Board of Trustees, faculty, staff and Cavalier Nation, I’d like to welcome you to another exciting and rewarding year at KCC. Last year, KCC continued its winning ways by sending three teams to represent the outstanding values the college at NJCAA National Tournaments. Women’s basketball finished fourth in the nation, and softball finished in seventh place. The baseball squad earned a record number of wins and brought home the Division II National Championship! What a great year for our Cavaliers! We are also very proud that 15 KCC student-athletes were named to NJCAA All-Academic teams for the 2016-17 year. It is a particular point of honor for me to share the role KCC plays in the overall growth of our student athletes and how our teams represent our outstanding institution during and after competing. Our coaches stress—and our athletes understand—the importance of education and character development. That’s why KCC produces graduates and All-Americans along with our nationally competitive teams. It is my firm belief that education is the key to all of life’s successes, and we all remain committed to our mission to develop leaders. Once the cheers and accolades have subsided, what remains for our athletes is the understanding of commitment, goal setting, teamwork and determination. When thy channel these characteristics into their educations, careers and personal goals, the results from these athletes will amaze us all. Knowing they lay the foundation for these triumphs, I would like to specifically thank the parents of our athletes, their coaches and Cavalier Club members for supporting our athletic teams. Please join me, the Board of Trustees, faculty, staff and all Cavaliers’ fans in wishing our teams and coaches success this year. I invite everyone to come out and watch our teams compete. Go Cavs!

Campbell chose to be a coach because of her passion for volleyball. She is able to foster the growth of her players through the numerous opportunities she is fortunate to provide.

She is the mother of two children. 2017 SEASON PREVIEW The 2017 Lady Cavaliers volleyball players will kick off the season by facing some rivalry teams which include South Suburban, Prairie State and Oakton Community College.
