AVON PARK, Fla.–March 5, 2015–Members of the South Florida State College (SFSC) Brain Bowl Team recently competed and placed ninth nationally in a field of 24 teams at the 2015 National Academic Quiz Tournament (NAQT) Community College Championship Tournament (CCCT), held Feb. 27 – 28 in Atlanta, Ga.
SFSC’s Brain Bowl team of Logan Boyd, Mike Cao, Christian Reitnauer, Garrett Edenfield, Mattew Estiana, and Jordan Thorton finished with eight wins and three losses.

Cao placed 24th, Boyd placed 61st, Thorton placed 80th, Edenfield placed 86th, and Estiana placed 1ooth in the individual standings.
“I am proud that our team was able to make it to nationals and even more proud of how well we did there,” said Cheryl John, Brain Bowl co-advisor. “In addition to the weekly practices held by Dr. Deery, we had a scrimmage to prepare for the tournament.”
The team secured a spot in this year’s National Community College Championship Tournament after placing fourth in the NAQT’s Sectional Tournament at State College of Florida, Manatee-Sarasota, in Jan.
