2009 Delaware MATHCOUNTS State Competition Winners
The State MathCOUNTS competition was held on March 26, 2009. Students from 12 different Delaware middle schools attended. The day-long competition consisted of individual and team rounds, with students answering a variety of math questions. The top scoring students then competed in a head-to- head round of solving problems to see who will come out as the overall State winners.
This year, the winning team was from H.B. DuPont, coached by Ms. Jeanette Otley.
- The top individual scorers were (all from HB DuPont):
- 1st place – Edward Li
- 2nd place – Uthsav Chitra
- 3rd place – Matthew Lan
- 4th place – Jason Lui
These 4 “mathletes” traveled to the National MathCOUNTS competition held May 8, 2009 in Orlando, Florida.
Many thanks go out to Meghan Lester of Geo-Technology Associates, who coordinated the program, and to the 20 professional and U of D student volunteers who helped to make the events run smoothly.
If you are interested in participating as a volunteer in next year’s program, or if you know of a middle school that would like to get involved, please contact
