This has been a tough year for the team because we had a new school built which took many of our strong team members. We had prepared the team that there was a chance that we might not make it to State. We were keeping our fingers crossed and hoping for at least 5th or 6th place (6th place and up move on to state). The kids on our team worked hard and stayed focused all year and it payed off. We took 3rd place!! We are still pinching ourselves today to make sure it was real. The kids did such a great job!!
Aaron competed in 4 events (the max we allow). He took 2nd place in Ecology and Road Scholar (maps), and 3rd place in Pentahalon (it's like a relay race). The only event he didn't place in was robots (they placed 5th).
