Nine area high schools and 195 students participated in the event. Competitive examinations in the areas of biology, chemistry, earth science, and physics were administered in two divisions: schools of 500 or more ( Division I), and schools with less than 500 ( Division II). Individual prizes were awarded for the highest scores in each division plus team competitions. Schools participating in this year's competition included Central, Stevens, Sturgis Brown, Saint Thomas More, Custer, Kadoka, Newell, Edgemont, and Hill City. Stevens High School retained the traveling trophy in biology, chemistry, and won the physics trophy for the fifth year in a row. Stevens has won the team trophy in chemistry for 8 of the last 10 years ( Central won in 1993 and 1991). Of all students competing, Lorraine Meyer of Custer ( Bill Young, instructor) had the highest score in physics, Kyle Detwiler ( Stevens High School, Roberta Gaines instructor) had the highest score in chemistry, Joao Teixeira ( Saint Thomas More, Teresa Olson instructor) scored highest in biology, and John Keefner ( Sturgis Brown High School, Robin Strain instructor) scored highest in earth science.
