Some Pitt Community College students are getting recognized on a national level.
After already bagging a victory in the state Sputum Bowl in September, Angela Chapman, Rachel Clifford, and Niya Hagans placed 3rd out of 18 teams in the American Association of Respiratory Care International Congress Quiz Bowl in Anaheim, Calif.
“This was no easy feat,” said Wendy Ayscue, department chair of PCC’s Respiratory Therapy and Polysomnography programs. “They have certainly earned their bragging rights to claim third in the nation.”
In addition to these three, PCC graduates Rusty Sugg, Wayne Tainor, and Ray Braxton also won the practitioner event at the NCSRC in California. Wendy Ayscue was also part of the team, but unable to attend the event in California.
