Mission College

NORTHEAST GLENDALE - When it was needed most, the Glendale Community College softball team played at its best Tuesday in a doubleheader with L.A. Mission College. "This was a day where if we lost one we probably wouldn't have made it [into the California College Athletic Assn. regional playoffs], we had to win them both," Glendale Coach Dave "Hawk" Wilder said. Not only did the Vaqueros do that, they did so convincingly, winning both games at the Glendale Sports Complex by a score of 8-0 to, according to Wilder, cement their spot in the regional tournament and as the second-place team in the Western State Conference's Blue Division with a 12-6 conference, 27-13 overall record.

Glendale Community College Trustee Ann Ransford has been elected to a state board that sets policy, directs research and drives legislation related to California's 112 community colleges. Ransford will be sworn in as a member of the California Community College Trustees board of directors at a meeting in Sacramento in June. “I am looking forward to serving in this position, especially in this defining moment and interesting time for community colleges,” Ransford said in an email this week.
