Sports
Baseball
Started in 1995, PittCC’s baseball program has emerged as a perennial national contender that consistently produces a number of student-athletes that have continued their baseball careers at four-year institutions and professionally. The Diamond Bulldogs have won five Region Tournament Titles and have made two appearances at the NJCAA World Series. Several former Bulldogs that have reached the Major Leagues include Freddie Bynum, Lonnie Chisenhall and Jeff Ferrell.
Men’s Basketball
In a state rich in basketball history, PittCC took its first turn on the hardwood in 1969. Struggling initially and after a season of non-participation, the Bulldogs found momentum and success under legendary coach Charles Coburn. The program was discontinued after Coburn’s retirement in 1993, but was resurrected 15 years later and returned to NJCAA participation for the 2008-2009 season. The Bulldogs made their first National Tournament appearance in 2018-2019.
Softball
PittCC’s softball program has flourished on the diamond since its inception in the early 2000’s. In addition to producing numerous All Region performers, PittCC’s softball program is also known for producing NJCAA Academic All-Americans. The program has recorded several Region Championships to go along with five National Tournament appearances, including back-to-back runs in 2010-2011 and 2017-18.
Volleyball
Pitt CC volleyball program was established in 2000. Since its inception, the Bulldogs continue to build a solid foundation that has found success through hard work and local recruitment. The Bulldogs have won a handful of Region Championships and have made two appearances at the National Tournament.
