Clear Creek beat us for the title. Our captain, who I'm still good friends with, just recently sent me a DVD of our televised rounds + mall footage that his parents took. Seems like we got "scholarships" (checks) of $750 each for finishing 2nd, which was a LOT of $ for an 18-yr-old going off to college. Fun memories!

It looks like we both share a bit of Houston academic history. Boy, those were fun times weren't they? I also read through your blog and see that you have, or still, work in IT. I too work in technology as I am a Project Manager for enterprise regulatory software for State of Texas government agencies. Aren, thanks for stopping by.
