The South Puget Sound Community College women’s basketball program had never seen a player like Trinity Betoney before.

In his time at SPSCC, sophomore Ben Janssan has taken on much more than the role of international student-athlete.

Originally from Australia, Ben attended high school in Centralia before joining the Clipper Men's Basketball team in 2018. Kicking off his second year at the college—and on the basketball team—Ben has connected with nearly all sectors of campus and works in the Clipper Cafe and as part of the Social Media Team. He also excels in the classroom and frequently lands on Academic Honor Role lists.

South Puget Sound Community College women’s basketball coach Michael Moore preaches a relentless, fast-paced, defensive-minded brand of play.

With that being said, Angelica Francisco appears to be a perfect fit for the Clippers and exactly the type of player Moore wants on his roster.

Though it’s a big change of scenery for the Marceline, Missouri native, Andrew Green admits the Pacific Northwest has long been a target for him, his wife Marilyn, and their shih tzu-terrier Pearl—with the city of Olympia being the perfect size for their family, and SPSCC representing an opportunity to work within the community college system.

Coach Aaron Landon, one of the most successful Coaches in Clippers men’s basketball history, announced that he has accepted the job as head men’s basketball coach at Saint Martin’s University in Lacey, Wash.

Three student-athletes represented Clipper Athletics and the West Region at two high-scoring Northwest Athletic Conference (NWAC) All-Star games on Sunday, March 17, in Everett.
