Today we spanned the tech center and brought a constant variety of games. We had the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat. This was human drama of CTE competition. This was the TRCC CTE Winter Olympics! The Auto Tech I class experienced the thrill of victory by winning back-to-back TRCC CTE Afternoon Winter Olympic titles.
Though it may appear to be silly reindeer games, but the TRCC CTE Olympics are a true test of skill, perseverance and of course, pride for the program that brings home the championship hardware. Congrats to Marine Technology for being the 2024 TRCC CTE Winter Olympic Morning Champions!
