Herkimer County Community College placed second in the 2009-2010 National Alliance of Two-Year College Athletic Administrators (NATYCAA) Cup competition. HCCC has placed in the top five of the competition since its inception in 2004.

NATYCAA is the national organization of all two-year athletic administrators from the United States. The NATYCAA Cup competition recognizes excellence in two-year college athletics. Rankings are formulated by awarding National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) institutions with points based on competition at NJCAA Championship events.

HCCC Director of Athletics Donald Dutcher accepted the award at the NATYCAA national convention in Anaheim, CA. “We are very proud of this ranking. It’s a testament to a long history of hard work on the part of the entire athletic department staff and student athletes, together with the support of our faculty and the College administration. It is a total team effort,” said Dutcher.

Herkimer teams that earned points toward the 2010 ranking included men’s soccer, men’s basketball, men’s and women’s swimming, men’s and women’s bowling, baseball, women’s cross country and women’s track and field.

Gloucester Community College (Sewell, NJ) placed first in the rankings, and Mohawk Valley Community College (Utica, NY) placed third.
