The PCC students named to the 1st Team were: Stefanie Wesch of Winter Haven and Chasya Wiseman of New Holland, Ohio. Named to the 2nd Team were Evan Gill of Davenport and Chelo van Leeuwaarde of Winter Haven.

Each year, an All-Florida Academic Team is named to recognize outstanding students in Florida’s community colleges. Students are chosen based on their exceptional academic achievement, leadership and service to the community.

The 104-member team is composed of students who were nominated by their respective colleges to the national All-USA Academic Team competition sponsored by USA Today and PTK.

The academic team members were honored at a luncheon on April 15, hosted by Florida Community Colleges Chancellor Will Holcombe. At the luncheon, each student was presented with an All-Florida Academic Team medallion. They were also recognized by the Florida Legislature and other state leaders during their visit to the Capitol.
