Chance Lockhart led the math teams, placing in the top 7 in each event. He was 7th in Number Sense, 5th in Calculator, and 5th in Mathematics. The Calculator team placed third at the meet, and included Lockhart, Patrick LaRoe, Brandalyn Ellis, Marshal Johnson, Yvette Mellado and Kyla Dunham. LaRoe and Johnson also competed with Lockhart in Mathematics.
The Science team placed first in their competition, with Chesson Sims winning the overall gold and the top Chemistry award. Hannah Howard placed 2nd overall and was second in Chemistry. The Science team also included Aubryanna Powell, Grayson Burch, and Bryce Grahn.
Coaches were encouraged by the results of the meet, since there were a number of large schools competing, including Lubbock Coronado, Dalhart, and Dumas. They are excited to have some newcomers on their teams who didn’t compete last year.
The next big meet is in January when all UIL teams will compete in Stinnett at the West Texas Invitational Meet.
