BRISTOL — The “Apollo 18” PTO team from Portsmouth Middle School won the Judge's Award at the FIRST LEGO League INTO Orbit state championship at Roger Williams University on Saturday.

About 40 teams competed.

The overall first-place winner was "MagicSock," a famiily/community team from East Providence and Rehoboth, Mass. That team advanced to the next level of competition in Detroit, Mich., and each child on the team will receive a $20,000 scholarship to Roger Williams University.

When not running all over town bringing you the news from Portsmouth, Jim listens to lots and lots and lots of music, watches obscure silent films from the '20s and usually has three books going at once. He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
