The "Hemoglobin Homies", a team of Allie Hobbick, Chantal Wuertzer, Mya Wickersham, and Kolter Kramer, placed 2nd by only one point in The Anatomage Tournament at the State HOSA Conference today! The tournament is a team-based competition that uses the Anatomage Table, a 3D anatomy visualization and virtual dissection tool, to challenge students' knowledge of anatomical structures. Qualifiers for each round of the tournament get increasingly harder questions and must answer them in a designated amount of time. These four senior HOSA members each get a 2nd Place medal and a $75 Amazon gift card, and as a team, they have qualified for the National Tournament in Las Vegas, NV in May.
