World Finals, Iowa State University, May 22- 27, 2012


Two teams from LGB travelled to the World Finals, a creative extravaganza where more than 800 teams from around the world shared their ideas and work. Our two teams did a superb job showcasing their solutions: Ooh-Motional and Weird Science. They did exceptionally well on their Spontaneous Problem. 

The Hovercraft Team, Ooh-Motional, Division I, placed 14 out of 41 (there were 55 teams!)
The Smarties, Weird Science, Division II, placed 12 out of 42 (there were 63 teams!)
This is remarkable!  Our teams were competing with the best from 15 different countries!
