Many of you have said “I have to get out and see an SPC basketball game.”  Well, this is your last chance for the 2016-2017 Basketball Seasons. 

For the men, a win will secure the Conference Title and a spot at the NJCAA FCSAA Region 8 State Tournament!

Come out and celebrate our SPC Sophomores from our Men and Women’s Basketball teams as they play their last home games at St. Petersburg College!  On Wednesday, February 22nd at 7pm the Men’s Basketball team will take on Polk State College.  A win for the Titan’s and they will claim back to back Suncoast Conference Championships.  Additionally, a win will guarantee SPC an automatic bid to the State Tournament in Ocala March 8-11th.  We need as many students, faculty and staff out as possible as Polk State College travels well.
