Colin Lamb has been a staple at Garden City Community College for more than 20 years. 

Lamb’s hard work and commitment to Garden City Community College and its students allowed him to move up into multiple administrative roles throughout his career. Lamb has served as Assistant Athletic Director, interim AD, and now Vice President for Student Services from 2011-2022. He played a key roll in the success of the 2016 National Championship and 2018 National Runner-up teams, as well the hiring of Head Coach Tom Minnick, who took Arizona Western to the National Championship Game three different times.

He has overseen and helped write two TRIO/SSS grants through the Department of Education-totaling more than $2 million.  Some of his committee appointments include: the Academic Review Committee, Behavioral and Discipline Committee, and the Security and Safety Committee. He was also behind the design of the Broncbuster mural in the DPAC that was awarded best in the nation. In addition, he was named Outstanding Support to Students winner three times and the TRiO Achiever of the Year. Finally, Lamb has been instrumental in helping hundreds of athletes transfer from GCCC including Phil Loadholt, Mike Hughes, Tyreek Hill, Nic Marshall, Derek Pope, Cameron Kinney, and Torrey Johnson.
