Area students go back in time to test skills with ancient contest
By Tom Stankard
CELINA - Area high school students tested their mettle in science, math and physics by facing off in the medieval art of trebuchet warfare.
Students from Parkway, Coldwater, Versailles and Arlington high schools met Thursday on the battlefield of the Mercer-Auglaize Counties YMCA. The teams of six launched squash balls at targets attached to their opponents' trebuchets and were judged on accuracy. The contest was sponsored by the Wright State University-Lake Campus Engineering Department. [More]
