Congrats to everyone! There was quite a variety in B division medals, it made it really interesting! Also great job to Strath Haven and Shady Side as well as Harriton and Penncrest, you'll represent Pennsylvania well at nationals! :D
And as a team member with frogzorz, I agree with him that we aren't at all disappointed to not go to nationals this year, in fact I think we were shocked that we placed that well, and I guess its just that medal count isn't everything.
again everyone was brilliant, and the the building events I saw were incredible, and the tests I took were challenging so I'd have to say it was a pretty well run states.

Congrats to teams going to Nationals! I was really disappointed in not winning any medals (I won a bronze in Fossils and a copper in Dynamic Planet last year), but overall our team performed its best this year. This only makes me want to try harder next year! :D Though, next year will be my last until I have to go to Division C... :cry:

Alpha's spreadsheet is missing some of the placements, so don't draw conclusions until the full results are posted. We medaled in 2 events that aren't on the spreadsheet.

Well, we (Strath Haven) got 6th with 21.

About halfway through the day, I found out the top one was 28.

That may have changed, or it might not.

Congrats to Shady Side, Harriton, and Penncrest for making nationals!

The towers at states were pretty amazing. I heard the winning one was 7g and held all the weight.
