Pizitz Tournament Results
The 8th grade team finished in 6th place, missing 5th place by 11 points. Our top 4 written test scores were earned by: Hugh Williams (100.3), Jack Giffin (86), Madelyn Cohn (80), and Hudson Wingo (70). Our ciphering score was 265, a great improvement from the Berry tournament ciphering score of 140! Hugh earned a 3rd place individual trophy. He was one of five students who got a perfect score on the test. They had to use all of the tie breakers and ciphering scores to determine the final order.
I am very proud of our entire team this year. You have all shown growth this year and it has been a pleasure for me to help you grow into stronger, more confident mathematicians!
