to participate in basketball or track & field at the intercollegiate level herself, Yvonka says,
“Although it was ages ago, I was a student-athlete. That commonality alone makes me feel like
I can relate to our student-athletes. I know what it’s like to be passionate about your sport, to
try balancing school, athletics, and the rest of life.” She holds a BA in English and an MA in
Counselor Education, both from San Jose State University. Her hobbies include spending

CALIFORNIA’S BEST
COMMUNITY COLLEGES
Which Community Colleges Best Prepare Their Students
for Future Collegiate Success?
Community colleges have grown increasingly important in higher education. With
traditional four-year degrees becoming more and more expensive, community colleges are
one of the few avenues available for providing middle- and low-income earners a path to
higher education and a brighter future. Local community colleges do this primarily by
preparing students to transfer – at lower cost – to a traditional university, and ultimately a
four-year degree, by not only providing effective and affordable courses, but by providing
the resources, counseling, and academic environment needed to help make those
transfers happen.
California’s Community College system is the largest in the nation. To find out who was the
best in the state of California, I examined the transfer rates of all of California’s 112
community colleges covering the period between 2003 and 2010.
The Top Five Community Colleges in California
5. Ohlone College
Ohlone College’s most recent transfer rate was 58%. Located in
the Bay Area’s Fremont and Newark cities, Ohlone enrolls almost
11,000 students a year in 51 AA/AS degrees transferring about
600 students a year to four-year colleges and universities.

STRENGTH AND
conditioning
Ohlone’s Basketball program prides itself on being
bigger, stronger, and faster than our opponents. The
up-tempo style of play Coach Peterson has
implemented requires players to be in peak physical
condition. To meet this requirement, Ohlone has a
private weight room specifically for athletics, and a
newly renovated student fitness center.
Fitness Center
TOP-RATE FACILITIES
The Ohlone Fitness Center is located in
Building 9 and is reserved solely for Ohlone
students.
ight Room
Athletes’ We
The 3,000 square foot Fitness Center includes
areas for anaerobic and aerobic training.
The players have access to the best equipment available
in order to maximize their training efforts:
Free weights, including four squat racks and four bench areas
20 nautilus machines, each isolating a specific muscle group
Four state-of-the-art elliptical machines
Several aerobic training machines
A new plyometric jump trainer
A muscle-stimulating ballistic trampoline rebounder
“BIGGER, STRONGER, FASTER”
Unlike most community college programs that merely “encourage”
their athletes to lift on their own, we insist on the following:
Mandatory year-round lifting as a team (four days a week).
All weightlifting programs are designed, implemented, and monitored by
Anthony Eggleton, owner of Ant’s Mind and Body, and the premier sportsspecific trainer in the East Bay.
The weight program is sport specific and focuses on three areas: Injury
Prevention, Explosion and Stabilization.
OHLONE CAMPUS & BAY AREA
Established in 1965, Ohlone College serves the cities of Fremont, Newark, and part of Union City. Located in the southeast
area (East Bay Area) of the San Francisco Bay area, California, Ohlone College is part of the Ohlone Community College
District. The Fremont campus is located on Mission Boulevard off Highway 680 on a beautiful 534- acre hillside site just
south of historical Mission San Jose. The Newark campus is located on Cherry Street west of Highway 880 on a 31-acre site
adjacent to the San Francisco Bay.
Officially named Ohlone College on June 18, 1967, the institution honors the early Ohlone Indians who inhabited the
Fremont and Newark area. Distinguished by peaceful pursuits, especially in agriculture, they held profound reverence for
the earth, believing it was theirs for living and not for the taking. They aided the Franciscan Fathers in building the Mission
San Jose de Guadalupe in the late 18th century and prospered until 1806-1833 when a series of epidemics virtually
destroyed the tribe. Some descendants, however, still reside in the Fremont-Newark area. In January of 2005, the College
introduced a new logo to more fully represent the Ohlone heritage of its name.
Ohlone Community College District opened its doors in September 1967. Classes were first held at a temporary site in the
former Serra Center Home for Girls on Washington Boulevard in Fremont. A year later, the Huddleson Ranch property,
located in the Mission foothills just south of old Mission San José, was selected as the permanent campus site. The 20062007 academic year marked the 40th anniversary of serving the Tri-cities community with higher education opportunities.
Ohlone College is a member of the Coast Conference of the California Association of Community Colleges (CCCAA). This
conference competes against colleges that are located throughout the Greater Bay Area, including regions such as Santa
Cruz, Gilroy, Monterey, San Jose, and San Francisco. Ohlone College’s athletic teams include men’s/women’s basketball,
men’s/women’s soccer, men’s/women’s water polo, women’s volleyball, men’s baseball, women’s softball and men’s and
women’s swimming/diving.

EXPOSURE
Our reputation as a winning program has enticed several four-year programs.
Many schools have recruited our players, and the majority have been in our
gym to watch practices and/or games. These include, but are not limited to:
Akron
Boise State
Cal State Bakersfield
Cal State Fullerton
Colorado Sate
Fresno State
Gonzaga
Kansas State
Kent State
Long Beach State
Marshall
Metro State (CO) (DII)
Miami (OH)

Pepperdine
Pittsburgh
San Francisco
San Jose State
Santa Clara
Southern California
UC Davis
UC Riverside
UC San Diego
UC Santa Barbara
Utah State
Valparaiso
Washington State
Weber State
Wisconsin
Wyoming
To maximize our players’ exposure, we regularly participate in several
spring and summer Junior College events, including the Diablo Valley
shootout, the Southern California shootout (held in Los Angeles), and our
very own JC Jamboree.
Our players are also regularly featured in several four-year recruiting
publications, including “Rick Ball’s Midwest JuCo Report,” “Jerry Mullen’s
Midwest Report,” “Gerry Freitas’s West Coast Review,” “Kenn Littlefield’s
Southeast JuCo Review,” “Mike Mitchell Midwest Scouting Report,” and
the “Double Pump JuCo Review.” These reports are purchased by virtually
every DI, DII, and NAIA program in the country!
Multiple times during the year our staff sends email updates to every 4year school in the nation. This email update includes stats, highlights
and most importantly links to film that 4-year coaches can download and
watch immediately. No need to wait for a DVD to arrive in the mail. Ohlone
College is one of just 220 iTunes colleges or universities in the USA, and we
can upload our game film directly to iTunes where coaches can download it
to their device(s) for free. Ohlone is the first, and only, California
community college who uses this state-of-the-art service.
Our program takes great pride in the advancement of our student-athletes. It requires
an extraordinary commitment to academic success, player development, and a keen
understanding of NCAA and NAIA transfer requirements. During Coach Peterson’s
tenure at Ohlone, over 95% of his players have earned scholarships at the next level!

WHY CHOOSE OHLONE
summer program
During skill work, we build better individual scorers through ball
handling, creating space, scoring moves, Pick and Roll, and
finishing. Shooting is another huge area of emphasis. Our goal
is to have every player make 10,000 jump shots during the
summer.
WEIGHTS
We lift four days a week. Our goal in the summer is to teach proper
technique and to build strength and power, preparing for the long season.
CLASS
Players have the option to take a summer course in the afternoons. This is a
great way to get a head start on the academics.
YOUTH CAMPS
We run summer youth basketball camps around the Bay Area,
so players will have a chance to teach kids the game of
basketball. Our coaches and players have become an integral
part of the youth basketball development program in our
community. Our program organizes youth camps, clinics,
seasonal leagues, etc., that are held throughout the year. This is
a tremendous opportunity for our players and coaches to work,
get in the gym, interact and have fun with local kids.

OUR LEAGUE GETS RECRUITED
COAST CONFERENCE – NORTH DIVISION
Ohlone College is a member of the Coast Conference North Division. Other schools in the Division include
San Francisco City College, Skyline College, Cañada College, Chabot College, Las Positas College, and
Foothill College.
Traditionally one of the toughest conferences in Northern California, if not the state, our league’s combined
win-loss record over the last five years is an astonishing 829-607. Our conference has had the highest winloss percentage in the state the past four years.
Five teams from our league (Ohlone, Chabot, San Francisco, Las Positas, and Foothill) have been ranked
in the top 10 at some point over the last four seasons.
In 2011, 26 players from the six Coast Conference North schools received scholarships to four-year
schools. Student-athletes will be in a competitive environment against solid, well-established programs.
