A team of Cedarville University engineering students captured first place in the 2021 SAE Supermileage Competition, the second consecutive year they've claimed the top prize.
The competition usually includes a written report, an oral design report and a race to measure fuel consumption. Because of COVID-19 protocols, the race was canceled and the oral report was given remotely.
This was the team's second first-place finish this year. "Sting," Cedarville's other prototype car, won first place in technical innovation at the Shell Eco-Marathon Americas Off-Track Awards with a hydraulic braking system designed by senior mechanical engineering student Micah Zell.
