Eighth-grader wins
honor at science fair

Eight-grader Ashley Howard
took home best in fair at Liberty
Christian School’s annual mid-
dle school science fair, according
to school officials.
Ashley’s project, “Football
Physics: Protecting Young Play-
ers,” tested three different hel-
mets using g-force and algebra
to determine which one would
protect players’ heads the best.
She concluded that while a
helmet protects players from an
injury like a cracked skull, it does
not always protect players from
getting a bruised brain, accord-
ing to a school statement.
“This information could be
used to protect younger players
by alerting them to play cau-
tiously even if wearing a helmet,”
Ashley said in a statement re-
leased by the school.
Last month, all eighth-grade
students and seventh-grade stu-
dents in Pre-Advanced Place-
ment science competed in the
fair. The fair was optional for
ninth-grade students taking AP
biology and Uth- and 12th-grad-
ers in the earth and space class.

dents who placed at the fair, visit
