By Luis Calderon Surprisingly, there is a math team here at Hubbard High School and this year it was a mix of new and returning members that took part of it and with two new coaches at the helm. This year’s math team was coached by newcomers; Mr. Romero and Mr. Batterman. One Saturday per month, the participants of the team would go to UIC early in the morning to compete against other schools in the field of mathematics. The best thing about this team perhaps, was the fact that the new coaches seemed to bring a positive uprising to the team and motivated them to get to another level. Ahmad Mukdad, first year member of the Math Team, described the coaches as “ambitious and supportive”. He felt that although there are no appointed captains, that the leadership was there from everyone and they united together as a group. The team is currently in third place in the Pre-Calculus section, but overall the team is in eleventh place. On March 28th, the team went to their last competition and managed to jump from 11th to 10th. Jose Gomez managed to place 19th individually in Algebra I. Eduardo Martinez and Enrique Guzman both placed individually in Pre-Calculus respectively in 28th and 38th.
