On Saturday, February 8, the Upper School JV and Varsity SciOly teams competed in the Wolfpack Regional at NCSU. Varsity took 7th place overall and an undermanned JV team secured 8th. These feats are all the more impressive due to the fact the teams couldn’t compete in all the events, and several students were without a partner. Special shout out to Riya Bhatnagar, ‘27, for triple medaling in her events and bringing home two bronze and a silver medal. Click here for a full list of medaling scientists!
