Mitch Neher said:
"Being a member of the Speech Team here at PSC is not about competing against students
from other schools and worrying about whether you win or lose. Instead, it's only
about challenging yourself to grow and develop and to improve and progress. Therefore,
you can't lose, but you can only win by joining the Speech Team at PSC."
