Message from the President and Vice President

Welcome to Daytona.

​The leadership of Phi Rho Pi has worked tirelessly over the past year to provide an exciting week of competition, learning, fellowship, friendship and sunshine. 

Our tournament director,Duane Fish, and our host here in Florida,John Shultz, have planned an incredible tournament for you. Through competitive rounds and fun evening events, you are going to make friends from all over our great nation. These friendships will last a lifetime. 

As you compete this week please cherish the experiences you will have together. Over the years, I've had hundreds of students tell me that the favorite week of their college career was the time they spent at Phi Rho Pi. 

It is also one of my favorite weeks of the year. Coaches get to spend time with their friends and colleagues from around the country and our students get to interact, compete and have fun with other students from regions near and far to share their ideas. I can't think of a better way to spend a week. 

Thanks to everyone who made this tournament possible. And if there's anything that the tournament staff can do to make your experience more positive please do not hesitate to let us know. This is your week to shine in the sunshine. It is my sincere wish that each of you gets the spring BREAKS you have worked so hard to achieve. ​

Hello and welcome to the Daytona Beach Phi Rho Pi Nationals.
​
I am honored to be the Vice President for Tournament and I will strive to make this one of your best experiences. Phi Rho Pi prides itself on excellent competition, camaraderie, and fun. I hope your week provides you all those elements and more.  

It seems only fitting that this year's competition takes place in Florida. Recent events have shown the world the power of young people speaking out to make needed changes in the political and social landscape of this country. Your work this week, whether you win or not, is an indication of your commitment to march and to speak out. It is my sincere hope that the week brings you a sense of accomplishment and the confidence that you too can make a difference.

If there is anything I can do to help you in this endeavor, or to make your tournament run more smoothly, do not hesitate to let me know. My job is to serve you and to provide the best venue for you to speak out.
