Congratuations to Jim and Angie

Knoxville wanted to out do last years $12,000 total during their Coaches vs. Cancer event Saturday night. Mission accomplished as Knoxville stepped up and helped raise over $24,000 for the American Cancer Society. According to Church member Angie Utiermarkt, the total will likely go higher when they figure in admission and concession stand money. Over 1,500 people came out to the event that started with alumni basketball games, and silent auction during the basketball games. Knoxville lost both games to Carlisle.

Jim and Angie would like to thank everyone for the support and donations!


"There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love."1 John 4:18 (NASB

Former Knoxville Basketball Standout Lacy Stevenson has had a large impact both on the court for DMACC as well as in the classroom. In a recent game against Ellsworth, Stevenson led the Bears to a 70-37 victory scoring 19 points and drilling 5/7 three point shots. Stevenson was also named the International Association of Conference Center Administrators Scholar Athlete of the Week. In her first semester DMACC she earned a three-point-three/three grade point average majoring in Agriculture Administration.
