MPH Successful at Science Olympiad
Twenty-eight MPH Science Olympiad members competed on January 26 at the 2019 Midstate Division C Regional Tournament at Le Moyne College. Forty-three teams from across the CNY area competed in 22 events. The most senior of our three teams placed a respectable 16th out of the 43 teams.
Jack Murray and Grace Zhang placed first in the “Write It, Do It” challenge. This is the second year that Grace and Jack have teamed for this event–Jack as the writer and Grace the builder.
Some other event highlights include:
Anatomy and Physiology – Kiru and Parmees – 6th place
Circuit Lab – David A and Andrew B – 6th place
Code-busters – Jack M and Charlie M – 5th place
