What schools in Florida could a 16:45 5k road and 34:30 10k road walk on?
None. They don't do road races in college.
Maybe UNF
Probably any school besides UF or FSU.
Probably USF
UM

Ya. They do. The NAIA has a ROAD marathon which is the biggest event of the whole collegiate running year. Every serious athlete is running it and those who couldn't make it or lack the endurance are eagerly tuned in to the action.

If you are a high schooler, those times are worth considering as a walk on at UNF however this team is very much heading in the right direction. Got a FL finalist from last year and team just finished 5th in region. Coach might be looking more for 16:00 & 33:00 types to walk on but worth contacting
Mr Pigg.
UWF

Are you female?
Not UF, FSU, or UNF
why not UF? seems like he could make the team and probably help out.
I'd say naia
You could easily walk onto most naia schools in florida if not all of them. I attended Webber International University in central florida. You would fit in very well with those times. Check out their website:
there are many options in florida. NAIA, D2, D1. There are many schools that have NO men's track, but do have men's XC and unfortunately many schools that have eliminated men's running altogether. There are D1 schools with little to no scholarship aid, so while it is D1 in label, the level of competitiveness is such that you would be a valued member of the program.
If you are in-state and looking for cheapest options, then the state schools will be cheapest.
If you are out-of-state, then the private schools and the state schools may cost the same. check out the UF Mountain Dew Inviational results. You will find most Florida schools competed there. Then just start contacting schools.
Since it is a walk-on situation, make sure you are picking a place you will enjoy attending, has the right major, environment (small vs. large, beach vs. inland), and will value your particiaption.
I’m a D2 female runner. Our coach explicitly told us not to visit LetsRun forums.
