Atkins Cyberpatriot Team Repeats as State Champions


This comes to us from J. Scott Plaster, who teaches at Atkins Academic & Technology High School:

The official results are in. The Atkins HS non-JROTC Cyberpatriot team repeated as the NC state champion this year, becoming the first team in school history to win a state championship twice. What is more remarkable, though, is that the team graduated three seniors from last year’s team, leaving the team in “rebuilding” mode. Team captain Caleb Rollins said, “The odds were definitely not in our favor. Winning a Cyberpatriot state championship once is a remarkable feat for the Platinum tier, and twice in a row with a new, inexperienced team is almost unheard of.”

Atkins teacher and coach Scott Plaster said, “I knew the team would be in a good hands with Caleb. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a better student leader. He is truly incredible.”
