The Schmidthorst College of Business at Bowling Green State University is proud to announce that the BGSU Sales Team, composed of Sophia Barnes and Tyler Newton, placed 4^th out of 71 schools that competed at the National Collegiate Sales Competition (NCSC) in March. This is the second highest finish BGSU has had in the NCSC, behind winning the competition in 2010.

“Many thanks goes to a large group of talented and generous people who helped prepare them, including students Hayden Kuzma and Josh Wolpert, my entire advanced sales class, alumni Collin Levandowski, Steph Stile, Collin Newton, volunteers Davida and Shawn Frick, and of course Professor Mearl Sutton who first taught them the sales process in MKT 3500,” expressed Dr. Greg Rich, Associate Professor of Marketing. “Also, both Marsha Bostelman and Jayson Julien were very helpful with certain logistics.”

“Congratulations Sophia and Tyler! Capturing fourth place in the National Collegiate Sales Competition is a prestigious accomplishment and the Schmidthorst College is very proud,” exclaimed Dean Ray Braun ’80.
