Woot! Kyle Bethke and his team kicked ass at the Regionals for Science Olympiad on Saturday. I delayed the post until today to confirm that his team his going on to the Texas State competition.

Specifically, he placed 2nd in Solar System (both his and my favorite topic) just behind the 2014 National Champions, and 5th in Road Scholar, and his team placed 3rd overall but it was almost a tie for 2nd.

Particularly strong is that our homeschool science olympiad strategist steered our team directly into competition with the team that won the 2014 Nationals (and it seems like 75% of the last 10 years). Thus our homeschool team is pushing themselves against the toughest competition possible.

State is going to be at the end of April, I am really looking forward to what Kyle and his team can do!
