Anderson was a record setting miler during his two seasons at Lower Columbia College.  The R.A. Long product stayed in his hometown to begin his college career, and he became the long distance man-to-beat in the State Community College ranks. Anderson showed talent and endurance in his first season at LCC.  He won the mile and the two-mile in single meets several times. During his sophomore year, Anderson set the LCC record in the 880 and the mile.  He also broke the WSJCAA mile record, despite taking second in the final to Highline's Jim Prout. One of his great achievements in his sophomore season was winning the 880, mile, and two-mile in a single meet. While at LCC, Anderson formed a track club that drew many of the top long distance runners in the area. Anderson went on to run at the University of Idaho.

Gregg was a multi-sport star at R.A. Long High School when he came to LCC to play basketball.  He was a high scoring guard who earned All-WSJCAA honors in both seasons at LCC. Terry went on to play basketball at Central Washington University.  Gregg became a legend in the boys' high school coaching ranks.  He had an overall record of 681-217 in his years at Shelton and North Medford.  Gregg coached Shelton to the 1976 AA State title. Shelton was the runner-up in 1977, and in all his Shelton teams won eight league titles.  He had a successful run in 12 years at North Medford before retiring in 1998. Gregg was inducted into the R.A. Long High School Hall of Fame in 2014 and was also named to the Cowlitz County All-Century team in 2009.

Alice Fox was a talented high scoring player at Kelso High School when she decided to stay in her home area and attend Lower Columbia College. Her freshman season was a great one.  Fox scored 15 goals for the Red Devils, 4th in the conference, and was named to the NWAC All-Southwest Region team. She followed that up with seven goals as a sophomore, where many of the top defenders were assigned to slow her down. She was again an All-Southwest Region player. Fox went on to play at Evergreen State College in Olympia, where she became the 4th all-time scorer with 17 goals, and 3rd all-time in assists with 13.  She had four game winning goals during her time as a Geoduck. She met her husband, Doug Dietz, who won an NWAC title for the 2004 LCC basketball team.  They both played at Evergreen while raising their first-born son, Deacon. Alice Dietz is the public information officer for the Cowlitz PUD and currently serves on the Board of Trustees for Lower Columbia College.

The Rainier, Oregon, graduate had a stellar career pitching for the LCC baseball team.  He earned three victories in the 1979 NWAACC Baseball championship tournament.  His sophomore season, he had an earned run average of 2.39 and was an all-NWAACC all-star. Andrews had the kind of arm talent that brought professional scouts to LCC games.  He was drafted by four teams, including the Pittsburgh Pirates, New York Mets, Pittsburgh again, and finally the New York Yankees in 1980. Andrews spent three seasons in the minor leagues with an 18-12 record and a fine 3.17 ERA with 195 strikeouts before injury ended his promising career. Andrews went on to a long high school coaching career, and he mentored many local players.
