SEATTLE (AP) – And you thought badgers were land animals.
For the fifth year in a row, the University of Wisconsin-Madison won the National Concrete Canoe Competition over the weekend in Seattle.
The Wisconsin team used a 179-pound, natural gray canoe — named the Descendent — to capture the “America’s Cup of Civil Engineering” prize at what is officially called the American Society of Civil Engineers’ National Concrete Canoe Competition.
