Twelve students from Boyertown Middle School West recently traveled to Penn State Berks to compete in the Berks County MathCounts competition.
The team consisting of Owen Odom, Jackson Heckman, Anthony Mercovich, and Philip Derr won 2nd place in the county.
After an exciting countdown round, Philip placed second individually and will advance to the state competition in March. Owen, Anthony and Libby Frain also competed in the countdown round and ended up 5th, 7th, and 9th place respectively. Other top-twenty finishers are Jackson(12), Greyson Zheng(17), and Alex Greener(18).

Not badly done for a former journalism teacher and school newspaper advisor. Thank G_d there was no need for collating or paste-ups.
