SCF Athletes Post Stellar Grades and On-Field Results

Bradenton, Fla. Feb. 24, 2023

SCF’s 98 athletes combined for a 3.12 GPA, including 13 with a perfect 4.0 in Fall 2022. Men’s Basketball welcomed a relatively new team this Fall, but they’ve rallied from a difficult start to the season, with highlights including an eight-game winning streak and the program’s first-ever win over powerhouse Florida Southwestern. Women’s Beach Volleyball won the inaugural AVCA two-year national championship last year! The team opened their season hosting rematch against national runner-up Lake Sumter Community College, with the visitors pulling off the win, but the Manatees are positioned for another strong season. Baseball is in full swing. Congratulations to freshman Michael Forret for being named Baseball Pitcher of the Week by the FCSAA earlier this month. Women’s Tennis is seeking to build on last season’s successful trip to the national tournament. Learn more>>>
