Hall of Fame
Nancy was the rare four-sport athlete at RVC, a feat that would not even be possible to accomplish today. In field hockey she played center/forward and was the team's leading scorer. She also played guard for the basketball team, was team captain of the volleyball team for two years, and batted leadoff and played short stop for the softball team that went to the state tournament in 1974. Her softball experience at RVC led to a stint with the Rockford Comets as their starting second baseman. Nancy played competitive slow pitch softball for many years and participated in a number of Class A and B world tournaments. After graduating with her associate's degree from RVC, Nancy went to work for Pacific Scientific, which later became Danaher Corporation, where she was the lead person overseeing brushless motors for over 20 years. After the company relocated to Virginia, Nancy went to work for Woodward until she retired. She has spent time volunteering in the community Rockford Sexual Assault Counseling, Rockford Food Pantry, and Keep Northern Illinois Beautiful.
