Jessica Bandrowski was one of the best athletes ever to walk onto Keuka College's campus. Coming from the Long Island town of Center Moriches, Jessica was first recruited to play basketball and played a full, four-year, career for the Green and Gold. Following her second season of basketball, she joined the Softball team in 2012 and was named North Eastern Athletic Conference Rookie of the Year in her only season on the diamond. The ensuing fall, Jessica stepped over to the soccer pitch and played two seasons there for the Wolves. In total, she played seven seasons for Keuka College across three sports and was named to All-Conference teams in all seven seasons.
On the hardwood, Jessica grew into her role, averaging nine points a game in her first year, 11.6 in her second season, and 15 in her final two. She was named First Team All-North Eastern Athletic Conference in her final two years. She guided the Wolves to three conference final games, winning the league in 2011 and 2012. Jessica was named the 2012 NEAC Tournament MVP. She remains the College's career leader in steals with 272 and graduated with the sixth-most points in program history at 1,144. She also ranks in the top five in career assists and career threes.
Despite spending just two seasons on the soccer pitch, Jessica is tied for sixth on the career goals list at Keuka College. She posted 18 goals in her first season, tying for fourth on the single-season list at that time. Jessica remains second on the career hat-trick list with four three-goal games in her career. She was named First Team All-North Eastern Athletic Conference in both her seasons with the Green and Gold.
In her one season on the softball diamond, she again made an unmistakable impact. Jessica hit .337 with 27 runs scored and 21 runs batted in. She was solid in the field as well, recording a program-record 87 assists. She was a First Team All-Conference selection and was named the North Eastern Athletic Conference Rookie of the Year. Keuka College won the league in 2012 and went on to win a game in the NCAA Tournament.
