Los Angeles Wins BDPA West Region High School Computer Competition

BDPA Southern Minnesota has won six of the past seven national High School Computer Competition (HSCC) championships. They are a formidable team with graduates currently studying at Marist College, Rice University, University of Minnesota and Washington University of St. Louis. So when another HSCC team beats them ... it's newsworthy!

BDPA Los Angeles chapter students (see photo) shocked the HSCC community with their recent victory in the 2012 BDPA West Region HSCC Championship. The final results were as follows:

1. 1st place - Los Angeles, Team A (Pooja Chebolu, Akindele Davies, Trayer Harvey, John Isaacs and Justice Mozell-Guy)
2. 2nd place - Southern Minnesota - Team A
3. 3rd place - Los Angeles, Team B (Austin DeYoung, Steven Moreno, Marcus Schumann and Steven Zavala)
4. 4th place - Twin Cities
5. 5th place - Southern Minnesota - Team B

Chapters around the nation have been preparing for the national championship by competing in regional competitions held in Cincinnati (OH), Columbia (SC) Minneapolis (MN) and Washington (DC). The national championship should be truly an outstanding event. Who do you think will win this year?
