St. Andrew’s School students won first place in the Gray’s Reef Regional MATE ROV 2022
competition, Navigator Class, in Savannah.
Students were tasked with designing, constructing, and piloting remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) to complete a number of underwater challenges. Their winning design was created to benefit the
planet by performing underwater tasks such as gathering polutants, retrieving samples, and minor repairs.
Under the direction of St. Andrew’s faculty members, Maria Dixon and Dr. Kristin Peney, the students began designing their version of a ROV in the fall. After building three prototypes, the team continued to improve upon the final version until days before the competition.
Team members included freshmen Sierra Abbasi, Quentin Bronstein, Sterling Stephens, Erin Zimmerman and 8th grader Lorelei Downen.
St. Andrew’s is an International Baccalaureate World School inspiring young people age 3 through grade 12 in Savannah. For more information, visit saslions.com

SouthCoast Health patient: Never miss your annual physical
SouthCoast Health patient and cancer survivor Bernice Watson (pictured above) has one message for you: Never miss your annual check-up.
This retired school teacher says being diligent about her screenings likely saved her life.
In late 2016, a mammogram revealed a suspicious lump and the subsequent biopsy confirmed the bad news. Watson had Stage 2B breast cancer.
Your annual physical can be among the most important events of your year.
“It’s so important to keep your appointments,” SouthCoast Health patient and cancer survivor Bernice Watson also insists, “and I take every opportunity I can to remind other women to do the same. Early detection was the key to my good outcome.”
Learn more here.
If you’re due for your annual physical, or want to begin a yearly relationship with one of SouthCoast Health’s physicians, visit SouthCoast Health online to schedule an appointment, or call 912-691-3600.
