Congratulations to these Middle Schoolers for their hard work and efforts at the tournament:
For the first time, USN also sent a group of 4th-grade students to the competition.
This school-based competition gave students 30 minutes to tackle six exceptionally challenging problems. Lower Schoolers rose to the occasion, putting in impressive effort to take on these unique challenges and representing USN with grit, joy, and incredible sportsmanship.
Maya Gupta ’33, Aaron Wilson ’33, and Jack Semler ’33 tied for 3rd place, while Everett Huffman ’33 tied for 1st out of about 70 4th graders from around the area.
Congratulations to all participants for their performance in the tournament!
