Concrete Canoe
The Concrete Canoe Competition involves earning points for paddling races, a design paper, an oral presentation, and a final product. For the construction of a competitive canoe, students on the concrete canoe team place countless man-hours into ideas for a hull design, experimenting with different mix designs, and conducting strength tests to determine the best concrete mix for producing a sturdy yet buoyant and lightweight product. The team also acquires hands-on experience in creating a mold for the canoe and paddling to compete in a series of races. After months of paddling practice, the team placed 1st in the men’s endurance race, 3rd in the women’s endurance, 1st in men’s sprints, 2nd in women’s sprints, and 1st in the co-ed double-sprints race at the 2016 PSWC. Overall, the Cone team place 1st in Races and 4th overall.

My name is Jamiel Ishaque and I graduated from Radford High School. I've been a part of ASCE since the Fall 2015 semester. As concrete canoe captain, my main goal is to place top 3 at PSWC. I enjoy any time I can get under the sun, at the beach or in a canoe, paddling. I love ASCE because it is the best opportunity to make the best out of your undergraduate experience.

Hello, my name is Cathryne Kimura and I graduated from Hawaii Baptist Academy. I have been a part of ASCE for 2 years. My main goal as Concrete Canoe co-captain is to manage and be well coordinate with the team in order to get things done. Ultimately, the end goal is to construct a canoe that is stable enough to pass the buoyancy test so that we will not be exempt from racing at this year's conference. My hobbies consist of dancing and acrobatics. I love ASCE because there are so many amazing people and it is fun being able to work with them.
