UT ASCE Concrete Canoe Team Wins First Place
The 2011 team placed first overall at the regional competition. They will go on to the national competition in June 2011.
The UT Concrete Canoe team placed first overall at the regional competition this spring and will participate in the national competition in June in Evansville, IN. During the competition, the teams are judged on the quality of their oral presentation, their design paper, and the overall quality of the final product (aesthetics and durability). They also participate in a series of five races – the UT team won the men’s sprint and placed in the other four races.
2011 represents the first time in nearly twenty years that both the concrete canoe and steel bridge teams qualified for the national competitions. Congratulations to our student teams! Hook ‘em Horns!
