The first field is a straight line \u201cI Field\u201d which is meant to simulate a city sidewalk. The second field is a \u201cU-Shape\u201d which is far more challenging. The following students will be competing in this year\u2019s challenge: Michael Carnis (ASRO),\u00a0James Jorgenson (MDES), Keith McClelland (ASRO), Joshua Moses (ASRO), Randy Taklo (ASRO) and\u00a0Nigel Ystenes (ASRO).
