“This is a win-win-win situation for our students, our community and for the Rochester New York Football Club! Monroe Community College is thrilled to team with Wendy and David Dworkin and Jamie Vardy to inspire our community forward through professional soccer. We share the values of empowerment and excellence. The team will fit right in at MCC, where—like the MCC Tribunes student-athletes—they will have opportunities to live on campus, compete and become well-rounded, successful scholars and leaders on and off the field. The partnership also opens doors for MCC students and others to pursue internships and gain experience and have access to a professional sports experience.”

Dr. DeAnna R. Burt-Nanna, president of Monroe Community College
