My experience at MCC was very
rewarding in many different ways. As a student-athlete I valued the
small class size, personal contact with instructors, and the quality
of coaching I received. It was nice to stay close to home to play
basketball. My family andfriends were able to attend the games. I
have also had experience as an MCC faculty. I was the head women's
basketball coach in the 1990's. I was surrounded by good people who really helped me advance my career. Now, as a Tiger
alum and community member, I still enjoy supporting the athletes and
coaches at MCC.
Attending MCC is an outstanding way to get a quality and
personalized education. You will never be "just a number" here!

Playing basketball at
MCC gave me opportunities that I did not have coming directly out of
high school. Due to the added skills and exposure I received by
playing at this level, I was able to earn a full scholarship to
Southern Illinois University. I did not have any looks from
Division I programs out of high school, but after MCC I had a few to
choose from. I not only gained a great education on the basketball
court but also in the classroom. With MCC�s smaller class sizes,
instructors can give you more one-on-one attention and be more
directly involved in your education. You will never see a teacher�s
assistant or graduate assistant teaching a course at MCC. The
best part of being a student-athlete at MCC is the immense support
you receive by faculty and staff. It is not unusual to see a lot of
faculty and staff members in the stands during basketball games. It
is this supportive atmosphere that drew me back to Marshalltown
Community College for a career and the opportunity to coach. I just
hope that I can help student-athletes reach their dreams like I was
able to by playing basketball for the Tigers!

Marshalltown Community College was a great place to start my
collegiate basketball career. The coaches really cared about us as
a team and as individual people. I was able to take the classes I
needed for my major and they worked around my basketball and work
schedules. The community support was great and living in
Marshalltown was a wonderful two years that I will never forget.
Being at MCC allowed me to develop my basketball skills that I would
carry with me to a four year school. My AA degree from Marshalltown
also kept me on track to graduate in four years.
