Northwest Pennsylvania Collegiate Academy (NPCA) was a Division C team from Erie, Pennsylvania. They competed in the Northwest Pennsylvania Regional.
History
The team first competed in 2014, and became one of the top contenders within the region, placing in the top 3 every year from 2015 to 2019. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, their regional tournament in 2020 was cancelled. They returned to competition in 2022, but after two years of not qualifying for the state tournament, NPCA ended their Science Olympiad program, and they have not competed since then.
