The competition
for 2002 was held on February 13, 2:30 PM - 7:00 PM at the McCarthy
Middle School in Chelmsford. Our team came in a respectable 4th
place.
The alternate team came in second place among the alternate
teams.
Our main team was actually given the third place trophy in error, and
then
told that we were really fourth after celebrating with photos and
cheers!!
We are looking forward to doing even better next year.
Congratulations
to the whole team. Individual scores will be mailed to me and
passed
on to each of the team members.
