Updates:
The OSU Competition Team arrived safe and sound on Friday night in Las Vegas, NV as they gear up for the 2013 fall student competition hosted by ABC National. The Team, accompanied this year by W. Mac Ware (Team Advisor/Instructor), spent most of their day on Saturday preparing their Step 1 binder with the finishing touches before submission to the ABC judging committee this morning at 9:00am PST.
Day 1 was successfully completed today by the OSU CM Team, as their Step 2 Bid Day was submitted just in time before the 3pm deadline. All schools but one met the bid deadline, as many bid day changes and challenges were thrown at the student teams. As expected, the last 60 seconds were quite frantic all around, but the boys stood strong under pressure and submitted on time.
