While our growing enrollment excites me formany reasons, one is paramount: as an institution, we have the opportunity to shape and positively impact more lives and more communities than ever before. We are creating tomorrow's leaders today, and our graduates will be the change we so desperately need. They truly are the futureof our country and our world. Our nation has recently faceddevastating natural disasters. Hurricanes Harvey and Irma have pummeled Texas and Florida. Wildfiresare burning in the western United States. And while we cannot prevent events such as these, they remind us that millions around the country and around the world are hurting in many differentways and are in need of assistance offeredby compassionate and educated leaders. By "educating the whole person" -what we do so well here at Bridgewater Col­ lege-we are molding those compassionate leaders. Our current students will be among those who guide futuregenerations in times of plenty as well as in times of need. They will offer their service and insight and will lead with humanity, because that is the Bridgewater way. I look forward to witnessing the greatness that will come from our current stu­ dents, to seeing their education live out its true potential in the "real world." And I'm proud of how we're preparing them now for those futureendeavors. I invite you to peruse this issue, filledwith just a sampling of the ways our students are embracing leadership opportunities on campus and beyond.

  • The Reigning Valley League Champion Charlottesville Tom Sox Announced Their 2021 Schedule on Monday, February 1
    CONTACT: DREW GOODMAN | E: [email protected] | C: (434) 962-9027 CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. – The reigning Valley League champion Charlottesville Tom Sox announced their 2021 schedule on Monday, February 1. Due to health & safety circumstances brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic, the schedule features a new format that reduces travel for teams; which includes doubleheaders against North division teams and six added South division games. Home games, with a few exceptions, will continue to start at 7 ET & road games will vary. The Tom Sox kick off their season at home on June 5, facing the Covington Lumberjacks. The home opener marks only the second time in team history that the Tom Sox begin their season at home, having previously done so in 2016. The 2021 schedule features doubleheaders against all North division teams. With the new format, South division teams will face their six North counterparts only twice, compared to three times in past seasons. Charlottesville’s doubleheaders will occur on Sundays in June and Saturdays in July. Home doubleheaders will begin at 5 ET and road doubleheaders will vary. The Tom Sox and Strasburg Express face off in a doubleheader on Sunday, June 27. The Tom Sox defeated the Express in 2017 & 2019 to win both their league championships. The six North division games lost due to the doubleheaders have been compensated by additional South division games. The Tom Sox will face the Staunton Braves and Harrisonburg Turks eight times each (as opposed to six normally), and will add an extra meeting with the Waynesboro Generals and Covington Lumberjacks.

  • Sports Honorees 2013
    News Release – May 17, 2013 - Danville Community College By Marie R. Harris Danville Community College’s Alumni Association held its third annual Sports Hall of Fame induction ceremony and following reception May 17 in the Silverman Auditorium in Foundation Hall on the DCC campus. Inductees Jesse Meadows Jr., institutional merchandiser for Downtown Athletic; Dr. Ed Polhamus, retired DCC mathematics instructor as well as former Dean of Arts and Sciences were joined by the 1964-65 Danville Technical Institute basketball team. The team, a first induction for multiple individuals under one designation, included Dr. Harold Henry, athletic director; Dr. Grady Tuck, coach; Fred Butler, George (Buddy) Clayton, Bob Conner, Ray Dooley, Roger Hill, Jesse Meadows, Danny Ross, James Tate, Norman Tiglio, Curtis Tweedy, Albert Thomas and Jimmie Wood. As the third honorees for the DCC Alumni Association’s Sports Hall of Fame composed of individuals from Danville Technical Institute, VPI-Danville Extension, and Danville Community College, each individual possesses extensive sports background. The first inductee, Jesse Meadows Jr., was honored individually previous to the induction of the 1964-65 team on which he played. His individual induction was based partly on his prowess on the basketball floor while playing for Danville Technical Institute. Meadows, in his first year on the team, was the number five player in the nation in two-year college basketball for points scored, averaging 27 points per game. “Harold Henry recruited me; I had played baseball and basketball in high school in Danville. My first year, DTI played about 20 games,” Meadows recalled. “Because I averaged 27 points my first year, the other team’s coaches knew they had to do something.
