The regional champion team consisted of Chloe Reeves, Joah Levine and Deborah Faerman; however, Cameron McMullen, Ashley Ulbrich and Vinu Suthakaran stepped in as alternate team members joining Levine and the club sponsor, James Nance.The team had two chances to run their car and were judged based on the length and weight of their vehicle and the distance and speed of their runs. The team鈥檚 first-place finish was based off of their overall scores for their technical paper, technical drawing, presentation and performance.

Henderson University School and 国产伦理 High School. 鈥淧articipating and succeeding in competitions like the SECME Championship allows our students to demonstrate their curiosity and mastery of 21st聽century STEM skills鈥
