A team from George Washington Carver High School for Engineering and Science,
representing Temple College of Engineering’s Pennsylvania MESA (Math
Engineering Science Achievement) initiative, won second place in the
prestigious MESA USA National Engineering Design Competition in Portland,
Oregon.

The Carver team of Jesus Davaloz, Kai Tinsley, Marcus Seawright Jr., and
George Baidoo Jr., designed and built a functioning prosthetic arm that had
to perform three distinct tasks: pick up a ball and throw it for distance and
accuracy, lift and relocate different objects of various sizes and weights,
and place a screw through a hole and then attach a nut on the end.
