President’s Report

You've probably heard NTCC's tagline "Start here, go anywhere" - and it's true! We frequently hear stories about the great things our alumni are up to in our community and in the world beyond. A few of our former students have recently made national headlines. These are just a couple of examples of how NTCC Eagles are making a difference in the world!

The NTCC women's soccer team started strong against traditional powerhouse Richland JC on Friday night in Dallas. The Eagles kept pace with the Thunderducks scoring off of a free-kick to keep the score close throughout much of the first half.  The Eagles could not get over the hump despite making it a contest in the first half and keeping the score a respectable 3-1. Eventually, the Thunderducks would round into form and put the game away in the 2nd half, taking home a 7-1 victory in the season opener for both clubs.
