Later in the day, both of the girls competed in the 100 Breaststroke recording times that placed Genevieve in 2nd and Aubrey in 3rd.

Science Olympiad State Finals
Congratulations to our Science Olympiad team A for their achievements at the NorCal State Finals competition last Saturday at UC Merced. The team took 7th out of 18 teams (up from 9th last year), bringing home awards in 9 events (double last year). Though we placed 2nd in regional competition, UHS finished decisively ahead of both Edison (10th) and Buchannan (11th) this weekend.
Special congratulations go to Janelle Hobbs and Darren Sue for medaling in 3 events, and to Albert Chang and Tracey Liu for medaling in 2, and to Jake Hurst, Amanda Bruce, Jon Chu, Tiffany Chen, Josh Roberts, Dani Roberts, Chloe Houghton, and Roman Sook for each medaling in 1 event against some stiff competition.
The team greatly appreciates the support of our Science Olympiad families who helped with coaching and snacks through these last several months, and who transported the team (and all their 'stuff'!) and provided snacks, a comfortable home base, and lots of help and encouragement this weekend. We could not have done it without you!
