Kimberlie M. DiLeonardo Named Jefferson Community College Athlete of the Week
Watertown, NY-Sophomore point guard, Kimberlie M. DiLeonardo of the Jefferson Community College (JCC) women’s basketball team, was named JCC athlete of the week for the week ending January 19, 2026.
DiLeonardo, a 2024 graduate of Watertown High School, is majoring in Psychology at Jefferson. This past week, Kimberlie delivered a standout performance for the Lady Cannoneers, helping lead the team to a perfect 3–0 record. Stepping into the starting point guard role against Tompkins Cortland, DiLeonardo made an immediate impact with 14 points, knocking down four three-pointers while also dishing out seven assists. She followed that performance by hitting two clutch three-point shots in a key win over Hudson Valley, then capped the week with an all-around effort against SUNY Adirondack—finishing with 11 points, five assists, and three steals.
Kimmy’s poise, shooting, and leadership at the point were instrumental in the Cannoneers improving to 10–3 in Region play and maintaining their #8 ranking in the current NJCAA polls.
