GO MOCS! If you are familiar with college skiing, you must have heard “Go Mocs!” at the lake sometimes. The Mocs represent the athletic team of Florida Southern College (FSC) located in Lakeland, Florida. This college
attracts
great
skiers
from
all
over
the
world
for
many
reasons. It is only an hour from Orlando and Lake County, the world epicenter of water skiing. The facilities are awesome. The college is basically built around the training lake, Lake Hollingsworth. Lakeland is also a great place to live, offering everything you need while being a student.
FSC is a great combination of a strong educational program and competitive skiing. Many great athletes have attended the college: Scot
Ellis,
Lauren
Morgan,
Ambre
Franc,
Thibaut
and
Tanguy
Dailland, Marion Mathieu, Clementine Lucine, K.C. Wilson, Manon Costard, Paige Rini, Jamie Calhoun, and Cole McCormick. FSC has a strong sports tradition and water skiing is fully part of it.
Rea Jorger, the first Swiss athlete to represent her country at the US Masters
this
year,
is
currently
getting
her
masters
degree
in
accounting at FSC. Indisputably, the waterski team has helped her to achieve some high goals. Moreover, she believes that FSC has an excellent accounting program. The faculty has contributed to her academic
achievements
and
professional
success.
In
her
words,
“FSC gave me lifelong friends from all across the world in many different
sports,
and
place in my heart.”
