ºÚÁÏÍø

The 2025-2026 annual International Collegiate Programming Contest (ICPC) for the Southern California Region was held in Riverside, California on Saturday, November 15. ºÚÁÏÍø was well represented with 4 teams – each team had 3 student competitors. Below is a picture of those who represented ºÚÁÏÍø. There were a total of 76 teams from all over Southern California as well as Las Vegas, Nevada. The contest lasts the entire day from 9 AM to about 9 PM. The actual competition is a 5-hour long contest from 2 PM to 7 PM where teams write computer programs to solve the word problems that are the contest Problem Set. There were 13 problems in the Problem Set this year and our best team solved 5 of the 13, and each of the ºÚÁÏÍø teams solved at least 3.

The overall standing for all teams and the Problem Set can be found at this link:
