Don't mean to make anyone feel bad but the results of herp C looks out of whack. Again no offense but 5 of the bottom teams placed top 5?

This is lowest score we have ever got at a state competition, or atleast that’s been recorded, but my coaches say it’s was so, idk.

lol all the people who said Carmel would easily win

I think they had some kinda severe event drops, since I tracked a lot of medals on them as I was filling out the spreadsheet (for the record, they only dropped six events with medals up to five). I’m glad they still pulled through despite that tho.

What event drops?

Also, those division B scores though

I’d like to also mention that boom was not counted towards final scores due to the hook being more forward than it was supposed to be.

Do you know if that was just for Division B or C also? The hook didn't really seem off by any big margin when I tested (for C)

I think it was just B.

I wish our registrations in the state would go back up. I think that would make a 2 point loss, or having the lowest score in the history of Indiana Division B Science Olympiad for 5 minutes easier.

All the ones they didn't place in? Mostly builds, like usual. A long-standing pattern.

it sucks. In 2015, we placed second for the first time in a LONG time (like 13 years), and we thought we were going to nationals. But West Virginia started a SciOly program that year.

More programs would definitely be good. But I think we might be a little saturated, i.e. the schools that are big enough to have problems probably do, so it's become a question of expanding to medium and smaller schools, who have an inherent disadvantage in an activity that needs at least 15 members. Indiana's also not a geographically large state (nor are the demographics growing that quickly), which is another reason registrations haven't increased much. We'll see what happens, but I don't know if we'll get that second nationals spot anytime soon.

I will say RP's improvement in the last 4 years is fantastic.

Heard they were incorrectly announced from insider info

That sucks. Who were the actual top 5?

Well if they keep on that trajectory........
