Biography

The first female president of the Tiger Club (now Tiger Athletic Fund), Janet Houck Kines '80 was inducted into the Towson Hall of Fame in 1995.

She has been a vital part of the Towson athletic program for over 30 years. During her undergraduate career, she was a key performer for the volleyball and lacrosse teams.

As a senior, she was the co-winner of the Female Athlete of the Year award after earning four letters in each sport. A Parkville High School (Md.) graduate, she overcame knee surgery to have a fine college career.

For the Tiger volleyball team, Houck Kines helped the Tigers win the MAIAW state championship in 1979. A two-year co-captain for the lacrosse team, she was a first team all-state selection as a senior. In her final season, she helped the Tigers finished second nationally in the AIAW Tournament. Towson lost to Lafayette in the finals and she was named to the all-tournament team.

She resides in the Towson area with her husband, Dwight ’79. The couple has two children, Stephanie and Alan.
