For the 11th consecutive year, Carmel High School earned first place in the Rose-Hulman High School Mathematics Competition, which had 428 students participating from 27 schools from throughout Indiana and Illinois.

Terre Haute’s South Vigo earned second place overall team honors, followed by Evansville’s Signature School, third; Newburgh’s Castle, fourth; and Terre Haute North Vigo, fifth.

The Rose-Hulman competition is unique because it honors individual and team place finishers in each grade class, along with an overall school champion.

Six students correctly solved all 20 of the challenging problems in this year’s competition, including five sophomores – all from Carmel.

Grade division champions were senior Kabir Sheth of Signature; juniors Rhea Acharya of Carmel and Song Kim of Lafayette Harrison; sophomores Aneesh Dasgupta, Jack Liu, Bill Quian, Jinhee Won and Jacob Zhang, all of Carmel; and freshman Jayce Dix of Terre Haute South Vigo.

The competition was organized for the 54th consecutive year by Rose-Hulman’s Department of Mathematics. Professor John Rickert coordinated the testing and grading procedures, along with other department faculty, staff and student volunteers.
