That’s a podium finish! 😮‍💨🥈

SFCC students Ashton McCampbell, Braxton Poort, and Thomas Carroll of the Automated Manufacturing Technology team earned SILVER medals, taking SECOND in the nation at the SkillsUSA National Leadership & Skills Conference in Atlanta, Georgia!

While he didn’t finish in the top three, Rodney Schuchmann represented SFCC and Missouri well on the national stage in the Industrial Motor Control competition. We are still waiting on official placements, so stay tuned!

Congratulations, Roadrunners! We are so proud of you! 💙

Congratulations to two Missouri raised Women's Basketball athletes competing at State Fair Community College.

Ellie Buscher, a graduate of Lutheran South, has been named First Team All-American. Chloe Reed, a graduate of Lutheran - St. Charles, was designated Honorable Mention All-American.

State Fair Head Coach Nicole Collier told me they were two of the best. I think we can all agree with that!

@StateFairWBB @24_chloereed @Ellie_Buscher23

[State Fair Women’s Basketball @StateFairWBB]

2 All-Americans — the kind of consistency, character, and approach that defines us. Proud of these two💙
