I think our 2022-23 team did better than any other York team.
(They even got there themselves.)
* Gengchen Tuo, Kuimou Yu, & Tien Phan
solved EIGHT problems out of 12 at the regional contest placing 15th (behind 14 teams from the big 5 schools Purdue, Waterloo, CMU, UofT and UMich). Nobody solved more than 10 problems.
Thank you all for a fantastic ICPC (ACM) competition 2020-21. Our students did great.
(I don't want to take any credit. They did all the work.)
* York Red: Justin Su, Phan Ngoc Tien, Gengchen Tuo
* Ranked 22:67 > top third solving 7 out of 12
* York Gold: Chonglun (Allen) Chen, Hoang Minh, Cameron Bedard
* Ranked 33:67 > top half solving 5 out of 12

Two teams represented York at the 2019 regional programming contest.
They competed against 120 teams including multiple from Waterloo, U of T, MIT, ....
I clearly told them that I would love them to rank between 1/2 and 1/3.
I am proud to announces the our teams did very well this year.
Team york-lion2 (Justin Su, Allen Chonglun Chen, Ellie Seohyun Jeong) and
Team york-lion1 (Phan Ngoc Tien, Gengchen, and Ahmed Walid)
ranked at the 1/4 mark, namely 31/120 and 34/120.
We had lots of fun and it is great job preparation.
