Poudre seeks trip to national Ocean Bowl Poudre High School students will compete in the Mountain Mariner Challenge Ocean Sciences Bowl competition today at the University of Colorado at Boulder.

Poudre is trying to win its seventh-straight regional competition, which is the only land-locked regional competition in the nation. Eleven other schools from Colorado, Utah, Wyoming and Kansas are competing.

The winning team in the regional competition heads to the National Ocean Sciences Bowl in Seward, Alaska, in April.

In 2006, Poudre finished second in the nation and in 2004 finished third in the National Ocean Bowl.
