HARLINGEN, Texas - (Oct. 6, 2017) Sailors of Navy Recruiting District (NRD) San Antonio, Navy Operational Support Center-Harlingen (NOSC), and Navy City Outreach Southwest Region pose with students of Harlingen High School who placed first in the U.S. Navy-sponsored SeaPerch Challenge Competition held at the Harlingen Aquatic Center during the 2017 Hispanic Engineering, Science and Technology Week (HESTEC). Thirty-five high school teams competed in the event which consisted of an underwater obstacle course, a challenge course, and team interviews. SeaPerch is an innovative underwater robotics program sponsored by the Office of Naval Research that equips teachers and students with the resources they need to build an underwater remotely operated vehicle (ROV) in an in-school or out-of-school setting. The goal of the event was to spark students' interest in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). HESTEC Week is an educational conference that features events geared towards promoting STEM education to people of all ages and backgrounds.
