Foundation & Organization
2
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. In 1922, the citizens of Sacramento organized a junior college district by severing the connections between the college and Sacramento High School. This plan of organization remained in force until 1936 when the college became a part of the Sacramento City Unified School District. Twenty-eight years later, as a result of a March 17, 1964 election, Sacramento City College separated from the Sacramento City Unified School District to join the newly organized Los Rios Junior College District which assumed the operation of American River College and Sacramento City College. In 1970 the newly renamed Los Rios Community College District opened a third campus, Cosumnes River College. Folsom Lake College became the fourth fully accredited college in the District in 2003.

STATE CHAMPIONSHIP GALLERY 1951 State Champions The Panthers of 1951 won the first baseball state championship in Sacramento Junior College 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. Pete Vartanian was the team MVP, while catcher John McNamara was the team captain. McNamara became a major league manager for 16 years; his career highlighted with 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
26
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 playoff victory for the league title to advance to the state playoffs. Grant Tech (now American River) fell to the Panthers 15-0 and 5-2 as Sacramento Junior College 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.

5-TIME STATE CHAMPIONS 1988 State Champions Weinstein’s Panthers captured the third state championship in school history after going through the loser’s bracket at the state tournament and defeating topranked Rancho Santiago twice to win the title. The Panthers finished 46-10 and were led by Camino Norte Conference Player of the Year F.P. Santangelo, who led the state with 45 stolen bases. On April 28, 1988, the Panthers won the first game played in partially completed Union Stadium, clinching their eighth straight Camino Norte Conference championship. Weinstein was named National Community College Coach of the Year.
“Win the Last Game” 1998 State Champions
“STAY HOT”
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, including a 26-0 record in the Bay Valley Conference. 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 baseball team became the first Panther team since the 1982 football team to repeat as state champions. First year coach Andy McKay guided the Panthers after Coach Weinstein resigned his coaching position to take a job with the Los Angeles Dodgers organization. After sweeping through the playoffs, the team found itself needing to win the final 2 games on the final day to win the championship. The Panthers won the first and then found themselves trailing in the bottom of the ninth inning of the final. After telling McKay that he was going to win a championship, shortstop Joe Thurston delivered a 2 run double with 2 outs in the bottom of the ninth inning and the Panthers were able to dog pile for the second straight year.
