St. Joseph Street • Rapid City, SD 57701- 3995 Phone: ( 605) 394- 6082/ 2554 • Fax: ( 605) 394- 3388 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ( April 20, 1998) 283 STUDENTS FROM 12 AREA SCHOOLS COMPETE IN 1998 SDSM& T SCIENCE CONTEST Twelve area high schools and 283 students competed in the 1998 SDSM& T Science Contest held April 16th on the South Dakota Tech campus. Students from Custer, Douglas, Edgemont, Hot Springs, Kadoka, Lead, Newell, Philip, Rapid City Central, Rapid City Stevens, and St. Thomas More High Schools competed in the contest. The students took examinations in the areas of biology, chemistry, earth science, and physics. In Division I Schools ( 500+ students), Rapid City Stevens High School won the traveling team trophy in all three categories of competition -- biology, chemistry, and physics. This is the fifth straight year Rapid City Stevens has won the chemistry trophy. Because only one team entered the Division I earth science category this year, no traveling trophy was presented. In Division II Schools ( less than 500 students), Newell High School took home the traveling team trophies for biology and earth science. St. Thomas More won the chemistry traveling team trophy in chemistry, with Custer High School taking home the physics team trophy. The individual and team winners in the respective categories for Division I and II are as follows: DIVISION I ( 500 or more students): Biology Name High School Teacher 1st Place: Danny Nilles RC Central Rollie Larson 2nd Place: Aaron Hudlemeyer RC Stevens Douglas Schreves 3rd Place: Bohdan Rohbock RC Stevens Douglas Schreves Chemistry Name High School Teacher 1st Place: Jeffrey Whetzal RC Stevens Roberta Gaines 2nd Place: Dane White RC Stevens Roberta Gaines 3rd Place: Patrick Rich RC Stevens Roberta Gaines Earth Science Name High School Teacher 1st Place: Cynthia Nelson RC Stevens James Ghents 2nd Place: Laura Wenk RC Stevens James Ghents 3rd Place: Sandy Pelkofer RC Stevens James Ghents Physics Name High School Teacher 1st Place: John Abrams RC Central Mark Farrand 2nd Place: Mark Sauder RC Central Mark Farrand 3rd Place: Kyle Allen RC Stevens Mary Jensen -- more-- -- 2-- DIVISION II ( less than 500 students): Biology Name High School Teacher 1st Place: Ashley Lewis Newell Robert Sisk 2nd Place: Nathaniel Mason Hill City William Struble 3rd Place: Deanne Schnell Newell Robert Sisk Chemistry Name High School Teacher 1st Place: John Herlihy St. Thomas More Paul Hayman 2nd Place: Joao Teixeira St. Thomas More Paul Hayman 3rd Place: Sarah Johnson Hill City Sam Sampson Earth Science Name High School Teacher 1st Place: Marty Schild Newell Frances Olson 2nd Place: David Ullrich Newell Frances Olson 3rd Place: Andrew Harris St. Thomas More Jay Johnson Physics Name High School Teacher 1st Place: Anthony Gervasi St. Thomas More Paul Hayman 2nd Place: John Thorp Custer Bill Young 3rd Place: Adam Walker Custer Bill Young TRAVELING TEAM TROPHY/ DIVISION I: Category School Teacher Team Members Biology RC Stevens Douglas Schreves John Benn, Kyle Detwiler, Aaron Hudlemeyer, Bohdan Rohbock Chemistry RC Stevens Roberta Gaines Patrick Rich, Jake Thompson, Jeffrey Whetzal, Dane White Earth Science No team competition this year ( only one team entered) Physics Stevens Mary Jensen Kyle Allen, Jeremy Horpedahl, Kendra Kingsbury, Paavo Rasmussen TRAVELING TEAM TROPHY/ DIVISION II: Category School Teacher Team Members Biology Newell Robert Sisk Evie Hotchkiss, Ashley Lewis, Derek Oliver, Nicole Swan Chemistry St. Thomas More Paul Hayman Anthony Gervasi, John Herlihy, John Schmitz, Joao Teixeria Earth Science Newell Frances Olson Ashley Lewis, Matt Brunner David Ullrich, Marty Schild Physics Custer Bill Young Jessie Akers, Adam Walker, Jake Whiting In addition to the students earning the highest winning scores, the following individuals also scored well on the tests: Biology: Allan Emerson, Nicholas Wethington, Alana Hedlund, Colin Tschida, Stephanie Knodel, Wyatt Buls, Derek Oliver, Nicole Swan, Josh Harding and Neil Sanders; Chemistry: Anthony Gervasi, Betsy Berry, JeanMarie Hicks, Jocylyn Cutler, Valarie Culver, Jake Thompson, Matt Schaar, Peter Ahn, Aelgifa Hongruddy, and Laura Blom; Earth Science: Emily Hudson, Miranda Oliver, Jessica Christensen, Ashley Lewis, Allyson Nordstrom, Carl Desmond, Matthew Brunner, and Derek Oliver.
