🏁 Pinon Students Make History at 2025 Electric Car Competition! 🚗⚡
On Saturday, November 15th, Pinon Elementary proudly competed in the annual New Mexico Electric Car Competition, joining 38 teams from across the state. All three of our teams delivered outstanding performances and made school history with their impressive achievements.
🌮 Pinon Team One – Taco Supreme
Team Members: Aaron, Dayton, and Elijah
Team One raced with determination and skill, advancing through multiple rounds and securing a place in the finals bracket. In an exciting and hard-fought matchup against our own Team Three, Taco Supreme finished 5th overall for the entire competition—an incredible accomplishment.
🍬 Pinon Team Three – Free Candy Car (AKA “Bob”)
Team Members: Wylon and Kamryn
Team Three dominated their early rounds with confidence, earning a spot in the finals. After a fierce bracket battle—which included a victory over Team One—Bob sped through the final race with power and precision, earning 2nd place overall for the competition.
🔴 Pinon Team Two – The Red Racers
Team Members: Luciano, Eli, and Mikolas
The Red Racers fought hard throughout each race, impressing not only on the track but also during their design presentation. Their combination of persistence, sportsmanship, and innovation earned them 2nd place overall for the 2025 Electric Car Competition.
🏆 Making Pinon History
All three teams reached levels of competition and placement never before achieved by Pinon students. Their dedication, teamwork, and engineering creativity shined throughout the event.
Thank you for representing Pinon with excellence, heart, and success.
