Foundation and Organization

Founded in 1916 as a department of Sacramento High School, Sacramento City College is the seventh oldest public community college in California and the oldest institution of higher learning in Sacramento. Sacramento City College has a proud history as a pioneer in the region for diversity, quality education, and community partnership. Rare for its time, SCC was founded by a woman (Belle Cooledge) and with an all-female class as its first graduates, the college began with the spirit of inclusion at its very heart. First known as Sacramento Junior College, Cooledge founded the college to provide a safe, welcoming place for students to learn the basics for a college education, and to be a gathering spot for extra-curricular activities that would bring the community together. With this founding principle, Sacramento Junior College opened in 1916 on the top floor of Sacramento High School with 46 students and 16 part-time instructors. The college eventually gained its own campus at the corner of Sutterville and Freeport where it opened its doors to students in 1926. The campus consisted of just two buildings at the time. Thirty-eight years later, Sacramento City College separated from the Sacramento City Unified School District to join the newly organized Los Rios Junior College District Now known as the Los Rios Community College District, Sacramento City is one of four sister colleges in the greater Sacramento area. SCC has grown by leaps and bounds in many ways. Now, nearly 100 years later, SCC has certainly evolved with the times, but at its heart the college vision remains the same: to create a learning community that celebrates diversity, nurtures personal growth, and inspires academic and economic leadership.

Panthers Coaching Staff Derek Sullivan begins his eighth season as the Head Coach of the Panthers, his 16th year as a member of the coaching staff, and his 19th involved in the City College program. In addition to his coaching duties, he also teaches full-time in the Kinesiology, Health, and Athletics Division. In his seven years as the head coach, Coach Sullivan has had 90 players transfer to four-year universities. 32 Sac City student-athletes have arrived on campus to play for NCAA D1 schools, including Texas Christian, Cal State Fullerton, Long Beach State, Miami, UC Irvine, Utah, Nevada, Campbell, Winthrop, Stony Brook, Radford, New Mexico, Fresno State, San Jose State, Western Carolina, Cal State Northridge, Northern Colorado, Incarnate Word, Eastern Kentucky, Central Arkansas, and UC Davis. Another 27 transferred to play at NCAA D2 and D3 schools, including Chico State, Sonoma State, Nova Southeastern, San Francisco State, Eastern New Mexico, CSU East Bay, Texas-Permian Basin, Stanislaus State, La Verne, Azusa Pacific, CSU Monterey Bay, and Willamette. Deciding to play for Coach Sullivan and the Panthers goes beyond having a desire to win. Having a commitment to prepare for the next level, both on the field and off, is a huge part of becoming a “Sac City Guy”. While at City, Coach Sullivan has amassed an overall record of 191-108 (.639 winning %). The Panthers have qualified for the postseason in six of his seven years (’13, ’14, ’16, ’17, ’18, ’19), won three Regionals (’17, ’18, ’19), three Super Regionals (’17, ‘18, ’19) and two Sectionals (’18, ’19) while finishing 3rd in California in 2019 and as the State Runner-Up in 2018! Including his playing career and time spent as an assistant at SCC, he has been involved in six California Final Fours (’01, ’02, ’06, ’07, ’18, ’19) and three State Championship games (’02, ’06, ’18)!!! The Panthers have tallied 33 or more wins in each of the past three seasons (’17, ’18, ’19). “Sully” returned to the coach for the Panthers in 2005 after playing for ABCA Hall of Fame coach, Ed Blankmeyer, at St. John’s University in 2003 and 2004. As a member of the Red Storm, Derek was a utility infielder and played in the 2004 NCAA Stanford Regional. He played at Sac City under Hall of Fame coach, Andy McKay, in 2001 and 2002, reaching the Final Four in both years. Over the 2011 and 2012 summers, Derek was a part of the Chatham A’s coaching staff in the Cape Cod League. He followed in the footsteps of Andy McKay and current SCC pitching coach, Deskaheh Bomberry, who both coached in Chatham for longtime skipper John Schiffner. The Cape serves as college baseball’s premier summer league, attracting the best amateur players in the country. For three summers (2013-2015), Derek served as field manager for the Easton SSC Cats, partnering with Panther assistant coach Drew Henning to run the development-based, travel ball program with the Sacramento Sports Center and Easton Baseball. It has grown into one of the pre-eminent summer programs in Northern California. A graduate of Woodcreek High School, Sacramento City College (A.A.), St. John’s University (B.A.) and Sacramento State University (M.B.A.), Derek now lives in South Land Park with his wife, Nicole, and children, Abigail, McKenna and Kellen.

State Championship Gallery 1951 State Champions The Panthers of 1951 won the first baseball state championship in SJC history with a season record of 29-3. The team, which was coached by Jack Woerner, had a 19-game winning streak that included a 14-1 defeat of the University of California. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pete Vartanian was named team MVP; Jerry Kaeser was named the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s outstanding player; and catcher John McNamara was the team captain. McNamara became a major league manager for 16 years; his career highlighted a World Series appearance in 1986 as manager of the Boston Red Sox. Pitcher Tony Stathos had a 12-0 record and won the title-clinching game by a score of 7-5 over El Camino Junior College.

1953 State Champions Jack Woerner led the Panthers to their second championship in 3 years as the team posted a 25-5 record. J.C. Masters pitched the Panthers to a play-off victory for the league title to advance to the state play-offs. Grant Tech (now American River) fell to the Panthers 15-0 and 5-2 as SJC captured the Nor Cal championship, as Masters pitched a 2-hitter and hit a home run in the opener and the team stole 13 bases. After losing the opener of the state championship, the Panthers came from behind twice to defeat Long Beach City College in a doubleheader to win the final series. Center fielder Norman Coons led the team in RBI, runs scored, hits, home runs, triples, and stolen bases in being named the team MVP. Masters was 11-1 with 79 strikeouts in 78 innings.

2020 MEDIA GUIDE

5-Time State Champions 1988 State Champions Weinstein’s Panthers captured the third state championship after going through the loser’s bracket at the state tournament and defeating top-ranked Rancho Santiago twice to win the title. The Panthers finished 46-10 and were led by CNC Player of the Year F.P. Santangelo, who led the state with 45 stolen bases. Santangelo currently plays for the San Francisco Giants. On April 28, 1988, the Panthers won the first game played in partially completed Union Stadium, clinching their eighth straight CNC championship. Weinstein was named National Community College Coach of the Year.

1998 State and National Champions The 1998 Panther baseball team posted a dominating record of 44-2 in winning the second state championship under Jerry Weinstein and the fourth in school history. The team lost the second game of the season and didn’t lose again until the second game of the playoffs--a streak of 37 straight wins. They swept through the rest of the playoffs, defeating Saddleback in the final game. Pitcher Mike Neu posted a record of 15-0, the most wins in school history without a defeat. Matt Riley, a freshman who posted an 8-1 record, signed after the season with the Baltimore Orioles for a junior college record signing bonus of $790,000.

1999 State Champions The 1999 team completed the rare repeat when first-year coach Andy McKay guided the Panthers after Coach Weinstein resigned to take a job with the L.A. Dodgers organization. After sweeping through the playoffs, the team found itself needing to win the final 2 games to claim the championship. After winning the first game, SCC trailed by one run in the bottom of the ninth inning of the final. After telling McKay that he was going to win a championship, shortstop Joe Thurston smacked a 2-run double with 2 outs for the come-from-behind win, and the Panthers were able to dogpile for the second straight year.
