The school’s Baja Racing team earned first place in the Midwest Baja Society of Automotive Engineers business presentation, which requires students to present their off-road vehicle’s design and hypothetical ability to produce it commercially. The presentation competition began involved weeks of virtual presentations by more than 200 teams, with only a select few making the cut to present in-person to the judges during the four-day event in Michigan. The first-place finish was significant since PNW was competing against larger schools, including the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor and Oregon State University. The team also placed 31 of 85 teams in the competition’s endurance race, which challenges teams to race their vehicles on a rugged course for up to four hours. The PNW team’s collective scores across the competition earned it 38th overall.
