=About this Awesome User=

The Eviscerator is an avid Science Olympian from North Carolina. He is currently part of the Raleigh Charter High School Varsity Team (Class of 2013). He previously attended Fred J. Carnage Middle School. He has been a part of the wonderful establishment of Science Olympiad since the year 2007.

His username comes from the fact that he is also an avid competitor in Ocean Science Bowl and when studying holothuroidea, he thought evisceration sounded like a cool word.

Eviscerator: one that performs evisceration, the process by which the internal organs of a sea cucumber are ejected to frighten predators

=The Eviscerator as a Competitor=

7th Grade (2007-2008)
In 7th grade, the Eviscerator was a part of the Fred J. Carnage Middle School JV team because the teams were set up by the teachers such that the JV team was made up of 15 7th graders and the Varsity team was made up of 15 8th graders. In 7th grade, the Eviscerator did the events Rocks and Minerals and Egg-O-Naut. He was not very motivated and had joined the team mainly because his best friend had joined. As a result, his competition results were poor, and he did not receive any medals.

8th Grade (2008-2009)
In 8th grade, the Eviscerator was a part of the Fred J. Carnage Middle School Varsity team. He did 3 events that year: Disease Detectives, Bio-Process Lab, and Elevated Bridge. He got 3 medals at regionals, but aggravatingly missed medals by one place in 2 events at states.

Results:
Regionals: 2nd place Disease Detectives, 2nd place Bio-Process Lab, 4th place Elevated Bridge, 1st place Team

States: 7th place Disease Detectives, 7th place Bio-Process Lab, 11th place Elevated Bridge, 4th place Team

9th Grade (2009-2010)
In 9th grade, the Eviscerator became a part of the Raleigh Charter High School Science Olympiad Team. He was initially on one of the JV teams for regionals, but was upgraded to become the only freshman on the Varsity team after regionals due to his exceptional performance. He had a blast at states and nationals and became very motivated for the next year.

Results:
Regionals: 1st place Disease Detectives, 2nd place Ecology, 4th place Cell Biology, 6th place Picture This, 1st place Team

States: 3rd place Disease Detectives, 6th place Write It Do It, 1st place Team

Nationals: 6th place Model This (trial), 12th place Disease Detectives, 13th place Experimental Design, 46th place Write It Do It, 15th place Team

10th Grade (2010-2011)
In 10th grade, the Eviscerator was once again part of the Raleigh Charter High School Science Olympiad Varsity Team. He was very motivated and managed to win a national medal in Protein Modeling. This was a huge surprise as Protein Modeling was not run as a NC event, so nationals was the first time he competed in the event, whereas he had spent all year preparing for his other events and was not able to medal in them.

Results:
Regionals: 2nd place Microbe Mission, 3rd place Remote Sensing, 4th place Disease Detectives, 4th place Dynamic Planet, 2nd place Team

States: 1st place Dynamic Planet, 6th place Remote Sensing, 9th place Disease Detectives, 2nd place Team

Nationals: 4th place Protein Modeling, 8th place Remote Sensing, 11th place Dynamic Planet, 12th place Disease Detectives, 47th place Write It Do It, 20th place Team

Medals
The Eviscerator currently has 15 medals, of which 9 are from regional competitions, 5 are from state competitions, and 1 is from a national competition. He has attended 4 regional competitions, 3 state competitions, and 2 national competitions for a total of 9 competitions. He has not attended any invitational tournaments where he would have chances for more medals, but hopes to persuade his coach to attend a couple in the next few years.
