All 39 Lake Harriet participants shined at the FIRST LEGO League (FLL) Regional Tournament on Saturday, January 19, 2013. LHCS was only able to send 10 of their 21 teams to this tournament but those 10 teams took home 20 First Place awards! An impressive five of the six Minneapolis Public School teams advancing to the state tournament are from LHCS.
There are several divisions in this tournament and LHCS teams were winners in all divisions. The teams and their awards are noted below. Great Job GISE and GEMS!
Wish the 19 State Qualifiers luck for their FLL State Tournament on February 2, 2013. Go DRAGONS!
