Their victory secures a spot at the North America Championship (NAC), which will be held in May 2025. Top teams from the NAC are invited to compete at the world finals.<\/p>\n<p>UCF sent a total of seven teams to the competition, all with strong finishes. In addition to the first-place win, the other six teams placed third, fifth, sixth, 11th, 15th and 24th.<\/p>\n<p>The winning team, UCF OrElse, comprises <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/degree\/mechanical-engineering-msme\/\">mechanical engineering<\/a> master\u2019s student <strong>Tyler Marks \u201924<\/strong>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/degree\/mathematical-science-ms\/\">mathematics<\/a> master\u2019s student <strong>Andy Phan \u201921 \u201923MS<\/strong> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ucf.edu\/degree\/computer-science-bs\/\">computer science<\/a> undergraduate student Sachin Sivakumar.<\/p>\n<p>Not only did the trio finish at the top of the leaderboard for the regional ahead of teams from Georgia Institute of Technology and the 海角直播 of Florida, they also came out on top in the larger North America South Division, placing ahead of teams from Johns Hopkins 海角直播, the 海角直播 of Texas at Austin and Duke 海角直播.<\/p>\n<p>UCF has placed in the top three of the Southeast Regional \u2014 the qualifying competition for the national contest for universities in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi and South Carolina \u2014 for the last 42 years, underscoring its dominance in competitive programming. Their impressive track record brings the same publicity and recognition as it does for other college sports, says Ali Orooji, the UCF Programming Team\u2019s faculty advisor and coach.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is really no difference between programming competitions and other sports such as football and basketball,\u201d Orooji says. \u201cUniversities receive recognitions if they finish as the conference champion in football.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One of the keys to the team\u2019s success over the years lies in the strong sense of community among competitors and coaches, Marks says.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDespite the competitive nature of the regional contest, [where] &#8230; only one team [advances] to NAC, we all want to see the other teams do well. Everyone is constantly teaching each other new ideas and discussing various problems and techniques they have seen,\u201d Marks says. \u201cThis open discourse allows for team members to continue to get stronger at problem solving and has been a huge factor in my growth as a competitive programmer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sivakumar says the strength of the programming team is one of the main reasons he decided to attend UCF.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;One of the main reasons I decided to go to UCF over other colleges was due to the programming team.&#8221; \u2014 Sachin Sivakumar, computer science major<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>\u201cI think that our school takes this competition a lot more seriously than other schools in that we have organization and structure both in our teams and the way that we train for the contests,\u201d Sivakumar says. \u201cOne of the main reasons I decided to go to UCF over other colleges was due to the programming team and the environment surrounding it. \u00a0I think this attitude is a feedback loop, since it draws in strong competitive programmers and also helps train up even stronger ones.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Marks, Phan and Sivakumar also placed first in the Southeast Regional last year and competed in this past year\u2019s NAC. Stunningly, they did not place high enough to earn a spot at the world finals.<\/p>\n<p>Their coach, Arup Guha, says although the team was disappointed, they are taking the opportunity to analyze the reasons their teams tend to underperform at the NAC in comparison to how they compete at regional competitions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur goal is to try our best to identify the likely causes of this and try our best to update our training and preparation so that our NAC results are consistent with how good our students actually are,\u201d Guha says.<\/p>\n<p>UCF programming teams have a rigorous training regimen. As a team, competitors commit to two five-hour practices on previous competition problems each week, including a discussion of what motivated their decisions on items such as the order they chose to solve the problems, who coded each problem and which problems required collaboration. Additionally, each team member hones their skills on CodeForces, which offers live two-hour competitions online, an avenue Guha likens to playing nine versus a full 18 holes of golf.<\/p>\n<p>UCF OrElse will be given areas to work on specifically for the NAC based on their strengths and weaknesses, and on areas the coaches predict will be relevant to the competition.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur goal is to optimize these decisions for the competition we are preparing for,\u201d Guha says. \u201cIn addition, since there are several months until NAC, there is time for the students on the team to learn some new material or focus on specific problem types.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Marks says he still carries the disappointment of not making it to the world competition last year, blaming himself for mistakes made during last year\u2019s NAC. He&#8217;s using that experience to motivate him for next year\u2019s opportunity to qualify.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have discussed the NAC contest quite a bit since it happened, and have taken several actions to make sure that the same and other avoidable mistakes don&#8217;t occur this year,\u201d Marks says. \u201cWe will continue to train with this in mind so that we can continue to build good habits and optimize our chances for success at this upcoming NAC.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The first-place finish secures the UCF Programming Team a spot in the North
