Battle of the Towers

Chatham Week 2

    Chatham is always up for some good competition. In Pre-Architecture this morning it was all about the height. Battle of the Towers between the boys team and the girls team was intense! The girls started strong and had the bigger tower but it can crashing down early on in the 20 minute time limit. The boys tried to stay ahead and kept building but they were no match for the dynamic duo on the girl's team. The girl tower beat out the boys tower 87-84 feet. It was a close battle in the architecture arena.
