The BMCEP middle school team placed 3rd in the overall middle school bracket, and was awarded gift bags for their efforts. The high school team was anchored by Tirik Peterson and Camari Nelson, along with James Peterman and Bryson Gregory. The BMCEP high school bracket came in first place and received laptop computers.
