Lincoln Land Community College Athletics

Just 2.7% of students participate in varsity athletics across six sports programs. The college distributes $426,297 in athletic scholarships among its 106 student-athletes. This level represents a middle tier between major university athletics and recreational programs. The Loggers focus on providing opportunities for local talent to continue competing while pursuing affordable education.
