Students and staff compete in ninja warrior event

Students and staff at William Paca Middle School recently competed in “William Paca Ninja Warrior,” a fun and physically challenging obstacle course that was inspired by the popular television show, “American Ninja Warrior.” Throughout the week, students were put to the test running the course in their physical education classes. Students who recorded the best times in their respective grade level qualified to compete in the school-wide competition held after school in front of friends and family. They also had the opportunity to compete against some of the William Paca Middle School teachers to determine the ultimate William Paca Ninja Warrior.

William Paca Ninja Warrior winners included: Talim Reyes, sixth-grade boys, and Jariella Mercado, sixth-grade girls; Luis Soto, seventh-grade boys, and Caroline Bull, seventh-grade girls; Anthony Merkel, eighth-grade boys, and Jordyn Wilson, eighth-grade girls. Winning the teachers category were Corey Frederick and Alyssa Cabrera.
