2019 Math Madness Season Ends

Well ….. it was close.  We fought hard and we did really, really well.

FINAL SCORE:

The Harker School (Saratoga) 38,

The DBHS Brahmas 36

Despite losing, we actually moved UP from #20 to #17 in the Nation.

Coaches know how rare that is!  So, obviously we didn’t have a bad day.  They were just better.

As always our team score is comprised of our top 5 scores. 

Junior TONY WAN was perfect once again with an 8 out of 8.  He was our only perfect score.  Tony is now ranked #49 in the Nation.

Freshman JASON KIM, Sophomore AARON SUN, Junior WARRICK HE and Seniors KESHAV SRIRAM and NATHAN SONG all contributed with 7 out of 8.

To give you an idea of the “depth” of the team, if the scoring was based on the top 10 students, we would be ranked #13 in the nation!

To give you an idea of the “depth” of the team, if the scoring was based on the top 15 students, we would be ranked #09 in the nation!

To give you an idea of the “depth” of the team, if the scoring was based on the top 20 students, we would be ranked #05 in the nation!

Honestly, the fact that we can even compete against a private school like Harker is pretty humbling. 

Being able to give admission exams, charging $52,000/year in tuition, having an 11 to 1 teacher to student ratio, having a feeder system in place, etc.  has to give them a slight advantage. 

Hats off to them, though, they did a great job.  We gave it our best and they still outperformed us.  It’s nice to know that the gap is getting smaller …. we are getting closer.
