Jan Karnoski not only played two sports at LCC, but he also took the women's basketball to new heights as the coach of the She-Devils for nine years in the 1970-80s. Karnoski's baseball skills at LCC led to a scholarship at Seattle University. Jan was an All-Conference selection during the 1967 LCC baseball season. Karnoski was also a solid guard for the LCC hoop team under Don Porter. It was coaching where he made his lasting mark at LCC as he turned the women's basketball team into a formidable contender. In nine years as the Lady Devils head coach, "Karno" had a record of 162 wins and 93 losses for a 64-percent winning percentage.
