UTICA — Gary Broadhurst, Mohawk Valley Community College’s associate dean of athletics (the college’s athletics director), was recently named to the newly formed National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) Foundation board of directors.
The foundation was formed to support the mission and initiatives of the NJCAA, the governing body of two-year college athletics based in Charlotte, North Carolina. As the fundraising body for the association, the foundation seeks to enable additional opportunities for student-athletes and member colleges through scholarships, community service projects, and new initiatives.
The board of directors has 30 members who will serve a “vital role” in the financial support of the foundation and its long-term planning, oversight, and direction, according to a MVCC news release. Broadhurst is the only sitting athletics director selected to serve on the board.
In his 40th year at MVCC, Broadhurst directs its intercollegiate athletics programs. Under his leadership, the Hawks have captured 24 NJCAA national championships while finishing second another 18 times.
Broadhurst has received numerous awards during his career, including winning four “athletics director of the year” honors.
