Exeter-Milligan Update: 3D Printing



3D Printing at Exeter-Milligan
by Phyllis Severson, Math Instructor/Tech Director

We have been fortunate to get 3D printers at Exeter-Milligan. The computer apps students have been working with Photoshop and the site online-convert.com to take 2D pictures, edit them and convert them to 3D printable art. Pictured are some examples of what have been created. From left to right: a snowflake designed in Photoshop, Timberwolf logo edited in Photoshop and an eclipse viewer from NASA which was edited to add Exeter-Milligan to it and then printed. We are excited to continue to explore and create with the 3D printers.

Exeter-Milligan Falls in First Round of Football Playoffs



Exeter-Milligan battled a tough top seed during Thursday night’s playoff matchup in Bloomfield.  The Bees swarmed all over the field keeping the Timberwolves offensive to a minimum.  Joey Bartu, #27 struggles to find any wiggle room around the attack of #23 Trenton Holz and #19 Braden Eisenhauer with Timberwolf Colton Bossaller in the fray.  The Timberwolves lone score came from a beautiful Spencer Pribyl right into the capable hands of Trever Zelenka in the end zone during the fourth quarter. 


 #21 Spencer Pribyl has a little room to look and throw with #51 Johnny Babula holding the swarm of Bees at bay.  Pribyl had to fight the 25 mph wind plus gusts and connected with Trever Zelenka in the end zone in the fourth quarter.

The Timberwolves struggled all night in stopping the Bloomfield Bees run game, especially #28 Quinten Moles.  Exeter-Milligan’s #48 Ryan Sharp heads in to help #27 Joey Bartu contain the swarm.

 Trever Zelenka hangs on to tackle a Bloomfield running back.

Seth Maxson grabs and interception and carries it back for a few yards.
 Nick Hayek #8 tries to loose a defender to get to #28.
 Max Zeleny returns the punt for a good starting position.
 This was the last regular game for seniors #10 Seth Maxson and #27 Joey Bartu
