Lauderdale, Florida with annual revenues of over $2,82 billion revenues (2017). Garnering the 14th place team finish out of 77 universities for the Texas State University Sales Role Play team were  Pitts and  Boyer – both quarter-finalists in the role play competition.  Neithercut and McMillian competed in the Sales Management Case Competition. The coach of the team, Wayne Noll said, “Our students have a tremendous work ethic, great attitude and are very competitive. They are highly sought sales candidates by major corporations.”
