Triton Pride
Triton College Aluma supports student-athletes
Emily Jo Anderson is the athletic academic coordinator at Triton College. A Triton and Concordia University alum, she was previously an athletic event worker, assistant women’s basketball coach and Athletics Program assistant.
During the 2019-2020 school year, 38 Triton student-athletes earned National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) All-Academic honors, doubling the total from the previous year. Triton, in its final year as a member of the North Central Community College Conference (N4C), led the league with the most NJCAA All-Academic student-athletes.
Harry McGinnis, athletic director, attributed the academic success to the head coaches and Anderson for emphasizing the importance of academic excellence. Students must achieve an overall grade-point average (GPA) of 3.60 or higher to achieve NJCAA All-Academic Team honors.
