A Look Around The SSC. Florida Southern College

As part of the off season, I will be giving everyone a look at all the schools in the Sunshine State Conference. This month's feature school will be the SSC regular season and tournament champion Moccasins of Florida Southern College. The Mocs were the host school in the South regional this season but were upset by eight seed Tuskegee in the opening round.
  Florida Southern College (formally knows as Florida Southern, Southern or FSC) is a private college located in Lakeland,Florida. The school is the home of the world's largest single site collection of Frank Lloyd Wright architecture.  The Princeton review selected FSC as the most beautiful campus in the country in both 2011 and 2012. The Mocs have won national titles in NCAA Division II competition in baseball, golf, swimming, and basketball. The Mocs official colors are scarlet and white.
 FSC was founded as a South Florida Institute in Orlando,Florida in 1856 and moved to nearby Leesburg in 1885 under the sponsorship of the United Methodist Church and was open to both male and female students. It moved to Sumerland (now Palm Harbor in 1901) and changed it's name to Southern College in 1906. Due to the fires of the early 1920's it was temporarily relocated to Clearwater Beach and then to Lakeland in 1922. In 1935 it was renamed Florida Southern College by the board of trustees.
 Florida Southern College has over 2,319 students and 50 undergraduate majors in a variety of disciplines and offers both Bachelors of Arts and Bachelors of Science Degrees. At the graduate level, the school offers masters degrees in Business Administration, teaching, Masters of Education and Masters of Science in Nursing.
  Florida Southern's athletic teams are known as the Moccasins, often shortened to Mocs. Prior to 1926 they were known as the Southerners. The official colors are scarlet and white, although athletes sport red, white, and blue uniforms. FSC is a DII school that participates in the Sunshine State Conference except for woman's lacrosse (Independent.) The Mocs have won 27 DII championships, 12 in Men's Golf, nine in baseball, Four in Woman's golf, and one each in Men's Basketball and Woman's Softball. The Mocs most recent championship was in May 2010 when the men's golf team won it's 12th title.
