Walkersville High Science Olympiads Excel
On Saturday, 24 of Walkersville High School Science Olympiad team members made the trip to Washington, DC to compete at the National Cathedral School Invitational Tournament. This tournament involved twenty teams, mostly from schools three or four times the size of Walkersville, including schools from Fairfax, Montgomery or Howard Counties. Despite the difference in the size of schools, Walkersville students did a great job in many events!
Here are the events in which Walkersville High School Science Olympiads placed: (all places out of 20 teams)
Gold Medal First Place Joey Moss and Julie Yang for It’s About Time
Gold Medal First Place Brandon Gardner for Electric Vehicle
Silver Medal Second Place Blake Capella and Shayna Maleson for Dynamic Planet
Silver Medal Second Place Susanna Chen and Roshni Patel for Robot Arm
Silver Medal Second Place Adam Hostetter and Roshan Rao for It’s About Time
Fourth Place Award Harshi Patel and Shayna Maleson for Write It Do It
Fourth Place Award Jennifer Simmons and Joey Moss Geologic Mapping
Fourth Place Award Blake Capella and Shayna Maleson for Astronomy
Fifth Place Award Brandon Gardner Wind Power
Fifth Place Award Adam Hostetter and Connor Petrelle for Air Trajectory
More than half of the twenty-four students traveled to the football game at M&T Bank Stadium right after competing in DC.
The next Science Olympiad competition will be Regionals on Saturday, February 20, 2016 at the University of Maryland.
