Since becoming the head coach at JJC, Sanderson has helped more than 40 athletes extend their playing careers at four-year institutions and has coached 22 all-conference players, 18 all-region players, three All-Americans, and five Academic All-Americans.
ABOUT COACH TURNER
Coach Turner became the head men’s basketball coach at JJC in 2022, bringing more than 30 years of coaching experience at both the high school and collegiate levels to the Wolves program.

We invite you to join the Galowich Family YMCA in spreading cheer this holiday season by participating in our 2023 Giving Tree program. All items collected will be wrapped and given to YMCA families in need this Christmas season.
To participate, select an ornament tag from the wall next to the Christmas Tree in the lobby at the Galowich Family YMCA. Each tag describes an item on a child’s wish list. Members are welcome to select more than one gift. Return your unwrapped gift(s), with the ornament tag attached, by Friday, December 15 to the Membership Desk.
We know that the true power of the Y lives in the hearts and actions of everyone who believes in our vision of a better us and a stronger community for all. Whenever we see a neighbor in need, the Y stands ready to help with open arms and caring hearts.
Each day at our three facilities and at more than 50 program sites throughout our community, the Y is providing much-needed programs and services for children, families, and adults living in Will and Grundy Counties. Kids of all ages are learning to swim and making new friends at summer camp and through our before and after school programs; teens are setting goals for their future while receiving college readiness and career training; seniors are becoming physically stronger and making connections once again; and families are staying active and spending quality time together. None of this would be possible without the support of charitable giving.
This year, we invite our supporters to join the #GivingTuesday movement by making a tax-deductible donation to the Y’s Mission Strong Fund. A gift of any amount will help to change the lives of people living right here in our community – your friends and neighbors.
