First Math Team Meet of the Year A Victory


The Southwest High School Math Team was well represented at Meet #1. On Monday, November 5, six of the Minneapolis high schools and one charter school met up at Patrick Henry High School for the first meet of the year.

Some statistics from the meet.

  • 132 total students from six schools in the Minneapolis division participated
  • 54 Southwest students participated individually at the meet
  • All 54 of the Southwest students scored at least one point. This is our highest success ratios ever. Perfection.
  • One student from Southwest had the highest individual point total at the meet.
  • The varsity team (official scoring team) earned 84 of a possible 136 points, finishing in first place within the division. That point total should put us in with the top 10-15 teams in the state, based on past history.
  • The junior varsity team earned 50 of a possible 136 points, unofficially finishing in second place within the division.
