Math Minutes
By Linda Gillingham
On Saturday, February 21, Linden Hall sent a team of four mathletes to the Lincoln Chapter of the MATHCOUNTS competition held at Millersville University. Our team consisted of eighth graders Sera Park and Kat Galvis, seventh grader Jillian Silbert, and sixth grader Julia Song. All four of our mathletes’ scores were considered to be highly commendable (at least 23 out of 46 points). Out of the 223 participating mathletes, Jillian ranked 21 and Sera ranked 30. In addition, our team placed eighth out of the 38 teams represented. (We missed receiving a trophy by 0.25 of a point!) Congratulations to all the members of our team for a job well-done!
