    University of North Georgia (UNG) students turned in strong performances at multiple sales competitions in fall 2021.

    UNG won the Kennesaw State University Presidential Cup as Michael Coriell took first place and Madeleine Brown came in second place individually. UNG also ranked No. 1 through the fall portion of the National Collegiate Sports Sales Championship (NCSSC), which will wrap up in spring 2022.

    Students Robert Sheppard (No. 4), Sebastian Salinas (No. 9), Matt Picus (No. 18), Joey Jorgensen (No. 25), Ryan Gray (No. 41), Zezmon Steeple (No. 63), James Berry (No. 72), and Sanquil Jackson (No. 73) were ranked among the top 100 sports sales candidates on the job market list NCSSC released in December.

    Additionally, UNG finished No. 9 out of 38 universities in the fall 2021 RNMKRS Roleplay competition, ahead of teams from Purdue University and West Virginia University that tied for 10th. Out of 2,148 students, Katie Kiker was No. 34, Trevor Nix No. 55, and Coriell No. 72.
