Dana Hills High School, winners of this year’s Grunion Bowl, took 7th place at the Finals competitions last weekend in Milwaukee, WI.

From (DanaPointTimes.com) – Up against Scripps Ranch High School for the second year in a row, the Pod Squad—with rookie seniors Lulu Erkeneff and Leila Haghi on board—dominated the Grunion Bowl’s double-elimination rounds and came out victorious.

“I think the biggest change this year was, we had the experience,” Arce said. “Coming into this year, we were all very prepared. We were all seniors in the marine ecology course and we knew our stuff and were prepared to win.”

The team traveled to Wisconsin facing 25 regional contest winners from across the country, for the marine sciences-based Jeopardy-style competition. The team advanced through preliminary buzzer-quiz rounds, and dominated their science expert briefing assignment to enter the elimination rounds, where they fell in the last event of the day.
