The seventh and final event of the 2013/14 Southeast/North College season was held at New Smyrna Beach Inlet. Weather was gorgeous however the waves were very small, but contestable.  It was UCF (A) that captured the win on the strength of 4 team riders in the College Men’s final. fellow team riders going into the College Men final.  Chris Lind from the UCF team took the win.  College Longboard went to Josh Richardson from Flagler.  Melanie Gannon from FAU captured the Women’s victory.  This was a fantastic year for the 2013/14 College Season and I look forward to seeing all the teams at NSSA East Coast Championships!
