Seems like we win or place each year, and this is no different, as FHHS sends a team to nationals – here’s more from the folks at the school district:
Friday Harbor High School wins 2012 Washington Regional Ocean Sciences Bowl
Friday Harbor High School once again has won the 2012 Washington Regional Ocean Sciences Bowl.
The school’s team of Audrey Olshefsky (team captain), Gavin Guard, Stewart Bell, Michael Barsamian and Libby Snow were victorious in the knowledge competition — a.k.a. The Orca Bowl — at the University of Washington Saturday, March 3.
They advance to the National Ocean Sciences Bowl in Baltimore, next month. Friday Harbor science teacher Nick Frazee was the team’s head coach. Fellow Wolverine teacher Marc Vermeire, an Orca Bowl veteran, assisted.
This is the sixth time in 9 attempts that FHHS has won the competition under coaching from Vermeire and Frazee. National competition travel in years past has included North Carolina, Mississippi, Florida, California, and Texas.
