The Southeast/North College event #4 was held at New Smyrna Beach Inlet under windy skies and choppy seas. A solid field of 13 teams turned up to do battle and despite the windswept conditions, the college surfers were ripping with a lot of team spirit on the beach. The UNF team came out of the gates firing and finished with a strong victory. Corey Howell took the College Mens win for UNF with teammate Hunter Roland taking second. UCF’s Nikki Viesins claimed the College Womens victory with UNF’s Emily Ruppert taking second. Daytona State’s Steve McLean triumphed in the Longboard.
