The Northeast Texas Community College (NTCC) Men’s Eagles Soccer team has been honored with the prestigious United Soccer Coaches Team Academic Award for the 2024–25 academic year.

Astubbed toe. A small blister. A scrape from a poorly fitting shoe. These minor foot injuries might seem like no big deal—but for older adults, people with diabetes, or those with vascular conditions, they can turn into serious complications if not treated properly.

Two former NTCC Presidential Scholars recently published award-winning scholarship that was developed and accepted for publication while at NTCC. Neida Perez, now at UT Tyler, published her Caldwell-Award winning study on the Texas war against pathogens, and Aubrey Watkins, now at East Texas A&M, published her Caldwell-Award winning work on the rise of the Cowboy Church. Both found acceptance as state-wide standouts in Touchstone, a collegiate journal published by the Texas State Historical Association since 1982. Though in recent years the journal has gone online, Touchstone is an anomalous, “for-undergraduates” collegiate journal, as it has been published in cloth since 1982.
