On Saturday, February 15, Coach Smith took her middle school Science Olympiad team to Boyceville for a regional tournament. The BMS team took 8th out of 18 teams, as they prepare to be contributors to the high school team. Medals went to:
2nd Place: Circuit Lab - Isaac Erb and Isaac Russow
3rd Place: Geocaching - Ben Johnson and Reid Nolden
3rd Place: Horticulture - Skyler Beyer and Liam Daugherty
4th Place: Disease Detectives - Skyler Beyer and Ella Blask
4th Place: Experimental Design - Ella Blask, Isaac Erb, and Elizabeth Lloyd
Meanwhile, a select squad of the high school team traveled to Loyola (IL) to participate in a tournament (as a make-up for an earlier cancellation). Carson Heller and Logan Niesen won in Gravity Vehicle, and Logan and Hansi Bartle won again in Wright Stuff. They found a strong level of competition in Illinois that will help prepare them on their run to state.
