Hey CyberDawgs!

I want to share information about a victory the Competition Team had a few weeks ago.

On April 29th, the UMBC Collegiate Cyber Competition CyberDawgs showcased their prowess at the U.S. Army's Aberdeen Proving Ground during the Association of Old Crows's CEMA Capture the Flag event. The teams, CyberDawgs Black (comprising Kevin Chen, Nicholas Marthinuss, William Brooks, Sophia Hamer) and CyberDawgs Gold (featuring Kyle Smith, Cameron Kozlay, Ryan Castro), represented UMBC with distinction. Competing against a diverse set of competitors including other university teams, industry professionals, and military CPTs, UMBC not only secured first and second place but dominated the competition. UMBC Black secured a commanding lead with 9464 points, while UMBC Gold followed with 4642 points. The third-place finisher, CACI International Inc – The CACI Kernels, finished with 4388 points.

Congrats to All!
