[OverTheTop]

The University of Sydney Rocketry Team, the team I mentor, has won three prizes at the recent Spaceport America Cup event, including the top prize of the Spaceport America Cup:
• Payload category
• 30k feet COTS category
• Spaceport America Cup 2022 (highest score out of all the teams)

The team overcame great adversity in the logistics area to finally get in the air and into the prizes.

Also a shout out to Monash University and the University of Melbourne who came runner up and first place in the Modelling and Simulation category. Australia has been well-represented in the results.
