Compass Academy Mt. Carmel made the trek to Williamsport on Thursday, December 9th to duel Compass Academy Lycoming in the Second Annual Compass Cup.  The Compass Cup is a competitive contest between the two sister schools. The Compass Cup was held at the Williamsport YMCA with three teams participating – Compass Mt. Carmel, Compass Lycoming Underdogs (grades 7-10) and Compass Lycoming Big Dawgs (grades 10-12).

Students participated in various Olympic-style events including Speedball, Tug-of-War, Track and Field, Trivia, 3 Point Contest and Flag Football. Each activity was facilitated by the Lycoming College student mentors.  The mentors have been working with Compass Lycoming students for the past six weeks.  At the end of the event, the teams had the opportunity to bond together with a Pizza Party.

Although Compass Mt. Carmel made a valiant effort, the Compass Cup will remain in Williamsport at Compass Lycoming, with the Big Dawgs winning the most overall gold medals.

See you next year for the rematch!
