ETS
Claims U.S. Title
Ecole de Technologie Superieure
(ETS) won the U.S. National Concrete
Canoe Competition ((NCCC). The University of Nevada, Reno finished
second followed by the University of Florida in third. The defending
champion, Cal Poly - SLO finished fourth with Utah State University in
fifth (spreadsheet).

ETS claimed victory (above - photo

(below).
ETS
was one of my top
five picks and I congratulate them on their victory. I also
selected Reno, Florida, and SLO for top five placement. As predicted,
Reno took the design paper and SLO won the final product. ETS
placed first in the oral presentation category while SLO won the races (some of
which were not held due to inclement weather). My hat goes off to
Utah State who tied for most design points (57.5/75.0) with ETS and
Florida. I
won't be underestimating you guys next time!.. jag
