Both of USN's teams advanced to TSB's eliminations rounds where the 48 teams with the highest cumulative scores from the preliminary rounds will face off on Saturday, March 6. Team 1 did particularly well, scoring high above the team average of all competing teams.
Congratulations to the members of each advancing team: Team 1 - Daniel Borza '21, Gracie Li '21, Neil Narayanan '21, Ben Gregg '21, and Jonathan Chung-Bruehl '23 Team 2 - Robiya Sahibnazarova '24, Adam Wang '24, Henry Wykoff '24, Isaac Spiller '24, Nicholas Tesauro '23
