PBA Student Elected to Service Organization Circle K’s Highest Board A student who led the effort to establish a Circle K International chapter on campus has been elected to the service organization’s highest board. Maria Landron, a junior public relations major from Royal Palm Beach, is a trustee on the 2019-20 International Board of Circle K International, the largest service-leadership organization for college students. Circle K International clubs are organized and sponsored by a Kiwanis Club. PBA’s chapter is sponsored by the West Palm Beach Kiwanis. In her new role, Landron will advise Circle K International leaders in the Panama, Kentucky-Tennessee, Rocky Mountain and Caribbean regions. She supports those regions' district governors, who are charged with helping their districts grow. She is also a liaison to Circle K International’s global development committee. In her most recent role, she opened four Circle K clubs at other colleges or universities, three in Miami and one in the Cayman Islands, said Jay McCampbell, lieutenant governor of Florida Kiwanis Division 20, which spans 12 clubs from West Palm Beach to Jupiter and out to the Glades. Landron traveled to the Cayman Islands, to witness the installation of officers and lead executive board training. “She’s very good at building interpersonal relationships with anyone who is around her, and she exudes a passion for serving with the Kiwanis,” McCampbell said. “It’s addictive to be around her.” As a student at Royal Palm Beach High School, Landron served on the board of the Florida District of Key Club International, the high school equivalent of Circle K International. She vowed that whatever college she decided to attend must have a Circle K International chapter. Then she fell in love with PBA, which didn’t. So she called McCampbell and asked for his support in starting one. He said “of course” and coached her — though “she doesn’t need much coach-

ing,” he said. Even before she put down her deposit, she emailed key people at PBA about getting a club going. Building the club from scratch, “I felt like I had the name and the brand of my family on my shoulders,” Landron said. PBA’s chapter, chartered in January 2018, is one of eight from West Palm Beach to Miami. The University’s club has about 10 members. Landron got involved in Key Club after moving to the United States from the Dominican Republic when she was 11. She was searching for connections to make up for the family she left in the Caribbean. “I joined, and I really felt like I was home,” Landron said. “I was valued. They cared not only about me but doing good in the world.” PBA’s Circle K International has a partnership with Meadow Park Elementary School in West Palm Beach — Landron was a co-sponsor of that K-Kids club — to mentor third through fifth grade students. The beauty of the Kiwanis is that you’re always mentoring and being mentored, Landron said. Globally, Circle K has a partnership with UNICEF to improve water, sanitation and hygiene for schools and children in Haiti. Members are encouraged to walk 3.7 miles — the average distance a person walks in the developing world to find fresh water — and ask friends and family to sponsor their walks. Landron’s PBA coursework and professors have equipped her to tell Circle K International’s story. She writes articles and newsletters, including a monthly publication in both English and Spanish for the clubs in Panama. Her mantra is, “You can’t fall in love with Circle K International if you don’t know what it is.” Landron plans to pursue her master’s degree in strategic communications to prepare for a career in the nonprofit world. “Working toward a purpose is really important,” she said.

Local student scholars hit the jackpot recently as moonlighting dancer and fundraiser, Diana Riser, hosted a Casino Royale kick-off event at Madison’s in Boca Raton for the upcoming 12th Annual Boca’s Ballroom Battle. Featuring fun money-fueled blackjack and roulette tables along with cocktails and appetizers, the evening festivities invited guests to try their luck, all for a good cause. In the name of fundraising for the George Snow Scholarship Fund the luckiest winners took home such donated prizes as a one-night stay at the JW Marriott Marquis Miami, dinner for two at Daniel Boulud’s Boulud Sud restaurant and two select Brightline tickets; a two-night stay at the Delray Sands Resort in Highland Beach; dinner for two and a bottle of wine at Madison’s New York Grill and Bar; and a head shot photo session by Brett Hufziger Photography. Dedicated to helping deserving students within the local community achieve their career goals through their pursuit of higher education, the George Snow Scholarship Fund awards four-year commitments to the area’s brightest and most deserving young scholars. By providing financial assistance and a host of supplementary support services, scholarship recipients have the resources they need to thrive academically. “These students fight challenging circumstances we can't even fathom, and yet they have the courage and determination to dream beyond and excel academically,” said Riser. “When you match that drive with the resources that the George Snow Scholarship Fund provides, the result has a huge impact on the students and our community. I agreed to participate this year because I could not turn down an opportunity to contrib-

ute to helping these amazing kids.” On Friday, September 20, 2019, you’re likely to spy not only Riser, but also seven other familiar faces on the dance floor at the Boca Raton Resort and Club for Boca’s Ballroom Battle. That’s when the “Elite Eight” will compete in a Dancing with the Stars-styled showcase at the annual scholarship fundraiser. Dancers will stage ballroom dance numbers set to spy movie music, and the winner of the fundraising battle will take home the coveted mirror ball trophy. In addition to Riser, whose day job includes serving as president of Boca Raton-based Pace Advertising, the “Elite Eight” dancers include Margaret L. Blume, philanthropist; Jason Hagensick, president and CEO of the YMCA of South Palm Beach County; Fran Nachlas, operating room nurse and president of the SafeSun Foundation; Tim Quinn, celebrity makeup artist for Giorgio Armani Beauty; Jody M. Saffert, director of organizational development and effectiveness at Boca Raton Regional Hospital; Dr. Minelle M. Tendler, owner of Tendler Orthodontics; and Eddie Ventrice, managing director of UBS Private Wealth “The George Snow Scholarship Fund philosophy is simple,” said Tim Snow, president of the Fund. “By helping young people achieve and prosper, our community grows. Boca’s Ballroom Battle is our organization’s largest fundraiser, and the event would not be successful without tremendous community engagement. We are so grateful to all the dancers for dedicating five months of fundraising and dance practice to our cause.” For information about this year’s Boca’s Ballroom Battle or to support the George Snow Scholarship Fund, visit www.BallroomBattle.com or call 561.347.6799.

FPL and Light The Night Sodexo Brings Fresher Food, New Announce Collaboration to Create Look to PBSC Campus Dining a World Without Blood Cancers The Palm Beach – Treasure Coast Chapter of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS), the world’s largest non-profit health organization dedicated to finding cures and ensuring access to treatments for all blood cancer patients has announced that Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) has joined LLS’s 2019 Light The Night®, as a Presenting Sponsor. Light The Night, an annual fundraising event, will take place on November 22, 2019 at the FITTEAM Ballpark of the Palm Beaches. Light The Night is a fundraising campaign benefiting LLS and their funding of research to find blood cancer cures. Coming together for a common goal, friends, family and co-workers form fundraising walk teams. Millions of consumers also help by donating at retail outlets. Culminating in inspiration and memorable evening walks every fall, participants in 140 communities across North America join together carrying illuminated lanterns to take steps to end cancer – white for survivors, red for supporters and gold in memory of loved ones lost to cancer.

“We’re thrilled to have FPL as a sponsor of this year’s Light The Night,” said, Pam Payne Executive Director at The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. “We appreciate their generosity and are grateful for their commitment to help make this year’s Light The Night the best yet. We are taking steps to end cancer.” LLS was founded by a family for families, beginning 70 years ago at a time when a diagnosis of leukemia was nearly 100% fatal. Now, with the development of new treatments for childhood leukemia, to today’s advances in precision medicine and immunotherapy, LLS has had a colossal impact on advancing cancer cures, and changing the way cancer is treated and the care for patients. Through its efforts it has invested nearly $1.3 billion in cutting-edge research to advance therapies. Thanks to research, survival rates for patients with many blood cancers have doubled, tripled and even quadrupled since the early 1960s. Yet, despite these advances, about one third of patients with blood cancer still do not survive even five years after their diagnosis.

New food choices will be available on the Lake Worth campus Aug. 22 as the campus Panther Café officially reopens after a four-month hiatus to undergo a major transformation. The new Lake Worth Panther Café, along with the updated Palm Beach Gardens and Boca Raton Panther Cafés, both which reopened July 1, now feature food choices from Sodexo America, LLC, the world’s leading provider of catering, hospitality and food retail services. A fivemember committee comprised of PBSC students and staff selected the company after a competitive solicitation process. “Sodexo was chosen not only because they have such a good reputation but also because they really listened to our students feedback on what they wanted to see change from our past offerings,” said Jessica Bender, auxiliary services manager. “We are very excited to have Sodexo as our on-campus partner for dining services at Palm Beach State College.” Some of these changes were to offer more fresh food items and smoothie options. Along with those additions,

Not Again! When Will it Ever End? In a few days, our children will head back to school for the new year. And I can only imagine parents sending them off with some sage words of caution: look both ways before crossing the street, don’t ever run out from behind a stopped bus and if someone assaults you, don’t fight back. Instead, tell the teacher. Let me add a few new tips: keep an eye out for suspicious people and backpacks, and always have an escape plan in case you need it. Amidst the annual tradition of meeting new teachers and making new friends on day one, students and school employees will now have to be more concerned about safety. And while it is a topic that many parents and certainly school officials would rather not address, it needs to happen. Administrators are tasked with creating an environment that’s conducive to learning. They also must assure their stakeholders that their children will be safe on campus. ( It’s a crying shame that school officials are having trepidations on whether to

have the public welcome back their students on the first day of school because of fear of an attack.) In the wake of the last four mass shootings, which left at least 40 people dead, and a nation mourning yet another senseless act of violence, everyone is asking when will the mass carnage end. As of my penning of this column, this 252nd day of the year, we have seen 255 mass shootings in this country in which four or more people were shot or killed — not including the shooter. Last year, gun violence snuffed the lives of 39,773 people – roughly 109 people a day - in the United States. And that does not include the survivors of gun violence who are disabled, traumatized, many for the rest of their lives. As I have opined on these pages after each mass shooting, until the American people confront the issue, the massacre will continue. Since repeated pleas to our elected leaders for gun control keep falling on deaf ears. It’s way past time for Americans to adopt what I call the Marjory Stoneman

Douglas approach. The only way to send the message for tighter gun control laws is at the ballot box, which means the time to start registering voters is now. Or, as author Jenna Blum puts it, the best way to stop a bad guy with a gun is 75.4 million millennials with a vote. I was comforted this week when one of my students assured me that the only way to feel safe in schools these days is to pray. While I concur, I submit that the way we usually live our lives has changed. Unfortunately, mass killings have become the new normalcy in our country. We now expect to live our lives with a sense of fear and anxiety, and while it may not consume us, it will always live with us. Let’s face it, there was a time when there were sacred zones in our communities: schools, churches, synagogues, malls, and even parks. These days, anyone could be mowed down by a hail of bullets at any time in almost any place. As we saw recently, you could be walking your family on your block,

shopping for school supplies at the mall, worshipping your creator in what was long considered a haven, or enjoying a movie in a cinema. You do so at a risk. No place is safe anymore. People are jittery and you can’t blame them. I saw hundreds of revelers in Times Square scattering recently after a motorcycle backfired. They thought it was gunfire. If the United States had banned the general sale and ownership of assault weapons like almost every other civilized country, those 40 men, women and children in Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin; Gilroy, California; El Paso, Texas; and Dayton, Ohio, still could be alive today. In the coming days, I encourage parents, counselors and mentors to begin healthy, meaningful and productive discussions with your children about the events. These are sensitive topics that need a firm, yet understanding approach and while there is no one way to address tragedies with children, like adults, our children also need to process their emotions.

POSITIVE LIVING By Robert J. Tamasy

The Challenge Of Doing Business–By Faith Faith is an interesting concept – and a challenging reality. When we are involved in a worship service, faith seems so simple. We sing songs that affirm our faith in God. We might repeat faith declarations that date back centuries. We hear uplifting spiritual messages that remind us of biblical promises we can embrace by faith. But then Monday arrives, and we find ourselves back in the workplace. How simple is faith then? Over the years I have encountered many people who express and demonstrate much faith in spiritual settings, but seem to abandon their beliefs in the so-called “secular world.” Some church traditions have even taught a divide between the sacred and the secular, but the Scriptures make no such claim. In fact, Colossians 3:23 boldly instructs, “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord not for men.”Faith is not to be confined to one day a week.

August 23 - August 29, 2019

But let’s be real. In the midst of business setbacks, whether failing to secure an important contract, not being able to close a much-anticipated sale, struggling to meet a deadline, or failing to receive a much-desired promotion, our faith in God and His direction might not seem as strong as we thought it was while in a safe, worshipful environment. Then we face a dilemma, because “faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by deeds, is dead,” as James 2:17 states. When I think of people of faith, one who comes to mind is George Muller (1805-1898), who cared for more than 10,000 orphans over his lifetime, and established 117 schools which offered Christian education to more than 120,000 children. What stands out to me is not only the Christian-based humanitarian work that consumed his life, but also the strong faith that guided his actions every day.

Citing the impact of faith on his work, Muller wrote, “Trusting the Lord for the supply of my temporal needs keeps me from anxious thoughts like, ‘Will my salary last and will I have enough for next month?’ In this freedom I am able to say, ‘My Lord is not limited. He knows my present situation, and He can supply all I need.’ Rather than causing anxiety, living by faith in God alone keeps my heart in perfect peace.” Is this the attitude you take when thinking about your daily needs, whether at work, in your family, or for other personal matters? Maybe it will help for us to consider some of the things the Bible tells us about what could be termed “working faith”: What faith really is. Faith in God, His direction and provision is not tangible, but rather a confident assurance, or earnest expectation, that what He has promised will be fulfilled. “Faith is the

www.bocaratontribune.com

substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen”(Hebrews 11:1). Another translation of this verse states, “Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.” Another passage, Romans8:24, elaborates by connecting faith to hope: “But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what they already have?” Action is evidence of faith. Faith could be called “belief in action,” like a toddler trustingly jumping into a parent’s arms in a swimming pool, confident he will not be dropped into the water. It could be said, no action, no real faith. “What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds?… Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do”(James 2:14,18).

Perils of Miscommunication

Equestrian Event in Wellington On the weekend I drove up to the Wellington Equestrian Center to watch my neighbor’s daughter, Skylah Watkins win one of the Grand Champion events.

There is a simple principle that underscores a common pitfall in communications: “It is not what you say – it is EXACTLY what you say.” Failing to observe this can cause significant, even disastrous problems in business, as well as for relationships, as I learned all too clearly at an event I was overseeing. It was a major business luncheon for our organization, and the event had gotten off to a good start. But as the guests began to finish their salads, I noticed that no lunches were being served. Even though our program was about to start, there were no meals in sight! Our guests were eventually served, and the presentation went on as planned, but the delay caused considerable anxiety for our team, as well as for the hotel’s staff. Only later did I learn that I had signed contracts that clearly stated that our event was to be held from noon to 2 p.m., instead of our accustomed 11a.m-1 p.m Because of my error, failing to carefully read the documents for the events and not being able to correct the time difference, the hotel was understandably not prepared at our normal lunch time. We might regard this as a small miscommunication, but it proved extremely disconcerting to our meeting planners and could have disrupted an otherwise great event. Everything else on the contract was accurate – seating arrangement, number of guests expected, the menu, and other details. But a small miscommunication could have ruined everything. When we talk about communications, we typically focus on what is being said or written, along with how it is expressed. However, what is not said – in this case, confusion over the expected schedule for our event – can be as critical

www.bocaratontribune.com

for determining success or failure. I have found the Bible offers excellent insight into the perils of miscommunication. Realizing that what we say or don’t say can lead to wrongdoing. In Ecclesiastes 5:6 we read, “Do not let your speech cause you to sin…” Paying attention to details, and having people check your work can help prevent painful miscommunications, whether they are spoken or in written form. My intent was definitely not to delay the meal service, but lack of intent can still lead to unintended consequences. Responding to potential mistakes. If I had determined to be more diligent to check and even recheck important details, such as the obvious one about when we and the hotel agreed the meeting would be held, unnecessary inconvenience could have been avoided. “The heart of the discerning acquires knowledge; the ears of the wise seek it out” (Proverbs 18:15). Recognizing that even small details can lead to failure. In a beautiful Old Testament book we read an appropriate warning: “Catch for us the foxes, the little foxes that ruin the vineyards, our vineyards that are in bloom” (Song of Solomon 2:15). The context of this admonition is not the marketplace, but the idea still applies. The “little foxes” we encounter during the course of any workday may seem inconsequential, but if not attended to properly, they can create more disruption than we could ever imagine. As it turned out, despite the delay in serving our guests, our event proceeded pretty much as planned However, the outcome of my miscommunication could have been very different, a lesson I never forgot.

Four PBSC professors win Stewart Award Four Palm Beach State College professors are the 2019 recipients of the Stewart Distinguished Teaching Award. The winners, who were announced yesterday during Faculty Convocation at the Duncan Theatre, are the teams of Catherine Montero and Mark Gatlin and Cary High, J.D., and Casey Reiter, J.D. This was the first time two teams were chosen. Each team received a $5,000 award. Montero and Gatlin and High and Reiter were selected from among 21 applications that included four teams of two for the award, which is the top honor presented by Palm Beach State for excellence in teaching and learning in the classroom. As part of the self-nomination process, they had to demonstrate that they went above the norm by developing, implementing, assessing and analyzing innovative learning practices that helped students succeed in reaching their academic goals. Montero, who teaches Fundamentals of Speech Communication, and Gatlin, who teaches College Composition, were chosen for their learning exercise in which they led their students in exploring the comprehension and application of fallacies in arguments using the social media platform Twitter. After Montero and Gatlin lectured on the different types of fallacies, their students applied their knowledge by locating a tweet posted by a politician which contained a fallacy. Students then posted a screenshot of their tweet, along with an explanation of the fallacy or fallacies, on an asynchronous blog created for the assignment. Students were then asked to select a tweet from a classmate and reply with a critical analysis. Students from multiple PBSC campuses and other college campuses

including Thomas Nelson Community College in Hampton, Va., participated in the activity and posted to the blog. High and Reiter were picked for their learning exercise where paralegal studies students from two sections of Court Systems II, which High and Reiter teach, prepared for a mock civil jury trial. During the trial, students developed their questioning, critical thinking and oratory skills while playing the mock roles of attorneys and witnesses. The exercise engaged students in a realistic experience that compelled them to apply basic and advanced objectives learned from all paralegal studies courses in a series of time-sensitive, no-nonsense assignments that all built toward one of the most difficult endeavors any practicing paralegal or lawyer will participate in. “Both of these teams were very comprehensive and detailed in their applications,” said Dr. Anita Kaplan, dean of bachelor’s degree programs and chair of the Stewart Awards Committee, who announced the winners during convocation. “The committee and I were very impressed with how well each team did to engage their students with Montero and Gatlin using social media, which is exploding these days, to High and Reiter creating an exercise that would mimic a real-life scenario.” In 2020, the awards will be part of the Center for Teaching and Learning Excellence, a faculty-led, physical and virtual initiative supporting faculty collaboration in discovering, sharing and creating innovative practices to advance all students’ success while empowering faculty to achieve their teaching goals. A new action committee will be formed to continue to facilitate and develop the awards.

Ninth Annual White Coats-4-Care Reception Raises $185,000 in Scholarships for FAU Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine Donors gathered again with students and faculty from FAU’s Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine (CoM) to celebrate the first and only medical school in Palm Beach County at its ninth annual White Coats-4-Care (WC4C) Donor Appreciation Reception. Raising more than $185,000 to “dress and equip” the incoming class of 2023 and fund scholarships, the event preceded the formal Annual White Coat Ceremony held the same week when the new students walked the stage to receive their first White Coat that represents integrity, compassion and trust, and symbolizes their commitment to serve patients. In the WC4C tradition of giving a warm community welcome, personal notes from WC4C donors were inserted into each student’s coat pocket. As CoM continues to seek, recruit and secure the best and brightest students from a diverse array of backgrounds, the annual WC4C reception has advanced from its traditional “new class” community welcome to becoming the college’s principal scholarship fundraising event. Propelling this heightened mission of embracing Florida’s future physicians, several donors increased their annual gifts this year as CoM Lobby Tribute sponsors or becoming members of the “White Coat Society,” those who have committed to four-year scholarship underwriting. With the average cost of medical school education and living expenses reaching $250,000 for students in-state to

August 23 - August 29, 2019

$400,000 for students out-of-state, 85 percent of students require financial assistance. Often this heavy debt impacts a student’s choice of medical schools as well as their medical specialty based on its income potential to repay loans. Developed nine years ago and cochaired each year by Kaye Communications (KCOM-PR) principals Bonnie and Jon Kaye, the WC4C initiative has raised more than $600,000 since its inception, resulting in dressing and equipping more than 500 medical students. “Scholarship funds raised by White Coats-4-Care provide need-based financial support for gifted students who do not have the financial means to pay full tuition and give merit-based support to recognize their achievements,” Bonnie Kaye shared with attending donors. “Most importantly, these scholarships give students the ability to choose a career path in primary care – internal medicine, pediatrics and family medicine – in which salaries are lower than other medical specialties, but the impact on our community is the great-

est.” “The Schmidt College of Medicine is committed to advancing the health and well-being of the community, but it cannot do it without the support of generous donors and devoted committee members who give their time, talent and treasure,” added Jon Kaye. “Success does take a village with vision, passion, unwavering commitment and engagement…and because of this, this year’s White Coats-4-Care raised more scholarship funds than ever before.” Phillip Boiselle, M.D., dean of FAU’s Schmidt College of Medicine shared, “This event illustrates the remarkable reciprocity whereby our community supports our students, who in turn go on to meet the medical needs of our community. To help welcome our next generation of physicians, the Palm Beach County Medical Society has generously donated new stethoscopes to each member of the Class of 2023. This gift reflects donations from over 50 members of the Society and its community partners. We are deeply grateful

www.bocaratontribune.com

to the Palm Beach County Medical Society, including the Society Board President and In-coming President, Drs. Mark Hirsch and Larry Bush, as well as the Services Board President, Dr. Michael Dennis, who also serves as Chair of our College’s Advisory Board and as a member of the FAU Board of Trustees.” FAU’s Schmidt College of Medicine is one of 185 accredited medical schools in the U.S. The college was launched in 2011, when the Florida Board of Governors made a landmark decision authorizing FAU to award the M.D. degree. After receiving approval from the Florida legislature and the governor, it became the 134th allopathic medical school in North America. With more than 140 full- and part-time faculty and around 1,300 affiliate faculty, the college has been nationally recognized for its innovative curriculum. To further FAU’s commitment to increase much needed medical residency positions in Palm Beach County and to ensure that the region will continue to have an adequate and well-trained physician workforce, the FAU Schmidt College of Medicine Consortium for Graduate Medical Education (GME) was formed in 2011 with five leading hospitals in Palm Beach County. In 2014, FAU’s College of Medicine welcomed its inaugural class of 36 residents in its first University-sponsored residency in internal medicine and graduated its first class of internal medicine residents in 2017.

Florida Atlantic University Ph.D. student Kathryn Pewenofkit Briner, D.M.A. (Kiowa, Comanche, and Apache descent), spent a week at the Smithsonian in Washington, D.C. in August as part of the Smithsonian’s “Recovering Voices Community Research Program.” Briner led an eight-person team to work with written and recorded Comanche materials in the Smithsonian’s National Anthropological Archives. The team, which included six Comanche Nation employees and FAU professors Michael Hamilton, Ph.D., and Viktor Kharlamov, Ph.D., gathered archival materials in order to fill in lexical gaps in Comanche vocabulary, grammatical content, and to increase phonological understanding. They looked at records dating back to the 1840s in order to trace the way the Comanche language has changed and grown. This work was part of Briner’s doctorate which focuses on creating the first online multimedia Comanche dictionary and learning tool. Most of the few Comanche who can speak the language are elderly and cur-

rently there is no complete online resource for the language. Briner, an advanced second-language learner, has been working with first-language Comanche speakers over the last several years and has been awarded grants for her language work from the American Philosophical Society, the Endangered Language Fund’s Native Voices Endowment, and the Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters at FAU. The Smithsonian’s Recovering Voices program is supporting Briner with a grant for her research. The program is a collaborative initiative of the National Museum of Natural History, the National Museum of the American Indian, and the Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage that supports interdisciplinary research, documentation, and language/cultural revitalization for Indigenous communities.

SPORTS Boca Raton FC and TEN Spring Water Sign Partnership for 2019/2020 Season

Boca Raton Football Club is delighted to announce that TEN Spring Water has signed on as a sponsor for the 2019/2020 season. Sourced from some of America’s purest springs, located at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, TEN Spring Water is bottled with a high pH and rich with alkaline minerals and electrolytes. “We so excited to welcome TEN Spring Water as a new sponsor for the upcoming 2019 and 2020 Season,” says Boca Raton FC president, Douglas Heizer. “As a local company, TEN Spring Water embodies the ethos of our organization, and we could not be more proud of having TEN Spring Water join our family.” With the partnership, TEN Spring Water will become the official hydration provider for Boca Raton FC and will have their logo proudly displayed on the back of all official Boca Raton FC jerseys. “We are thrilled to join the Boca Raton FC family,” says Jose Fernandez, founder of TEN Spring Water.

“As an avid fan of the game from my early years, supporting Boca Raton FC feels like we are part of something fun, exciting, good for the community, as well as to offer our support to the young players following their passion.” Most bottled water can be acidic, but TEN is no ordinary water because it is rich with essential alkaline minerals and electrolytes. The result is a great-tasting and refreshing water with a higher pH, just like water found in the purest glaciers. “Players will notice the difference week to week as they get used to only drinking TEN and their endurance and performance level will be noticeable,” added Fernandez. “The coaching staff will also see less sluggish players with more energy and quicker recovery time.” Boca Raton FC will kick off the UPSL Fall Season on Labor Day weekend as they take on Port Saint Lucie on the road, before their home opener at Caloosa Park on September 9 versus Florida Soccer Soldiers.

PBA Men’s Cross Country Picked Eighth In SSC Preseason Poll

Palm Beach Atlantic men’s cross country was picked eighth in the preseason coaches poll released on Thursday afternoon. The Sailfish finished in that spot at last season’s conference championship meet. The Sailfish are just in their third year as a program and saw their best team finish come at the Florida Tech Invitational a year ago, placing third out of six teams in that race in September. The team

also competed in their first national level meet in Pennsylvania in October, running at the pre-national meet. Ty Fisher led the team all season and was the top finisher for PBA at the NCAA South Region Meet. PBA will be starting the 2019 season in Lakeland as they compete at the Holloway Park Cross Country Pre Season Festival hosted by Southeastern University on Saturday, Sept. 7.

Lynn Men’s Soccer Picked Second in SSC Preseason Poll Lynn University’s men’s soccer team was tabbed to finish second in the 2019 Sunshine State Conference Men’s Soccer Preseason Poll, as announced on Tuesday. This marks the eighth consecutive year the Fighting Knights were selected to finish in the top-three of the league. Palm Beach Atlantic was picked for a third consecutive regular season title. The Sailfish earned 96 points and seven first-place votes in the poll voted on by SSC head men’s soccer coaches. Lynn edged out the defending national champions Barry for second place by two points, 83 to 81, respectively. Both squads received one first-place vote in the preseason ranking. Fourth-place Nova Southeastern University tallied 76 points as well as the final two first-place votes, while Florida Tech rounds out the Top-5 following 71 points from conference coaches. Florida Southern College sits in the middle of the poll with 53 points and is followed closely in the voting by the University of Tampa (45 points) and Rollins College (43 points). Saint Leo University

(23 points), Eckerd College (21 points), and Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University (13 points) occupy the final three positions in the ranking. Along with the 2018 regularseason championship, Palm Beach Atlantic claimed the SSC tournament title, a first for the Sailfish program. PBA fell to the Blue and White by way of penalty kicks in the opening round of the NCAA tournament. Lynn then advanced to meet Barry in the second round, in which the Buccaneers advanced following penalty kicks en route to the national title. Lynn (3), Tampa (3), Florida Tech (2), and Barry (1) boast all nine of the SSC’s men’s soccer national championships. The Fighting Knights have only been picked outside the top-three once since 2007, earning a fifth-place nod in 2010 following an 8-8 season. Lynn will be one of eight SSC institutions to open up the season on Thursday, Sept. 5th, as the Blue and White hosts Florida Memorial at 6 p.m.
