Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.

Use the formula:

z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}

The equation is correct, but there is no z-score for what OP posted. A z score is how many standard deviations something is away from the mean. The mean is 11, but there is no "something." That is, the z-score of WHAT?
