overheard…
“The goal is to make a great product and have a great presentation
but at the end of the day, we want to win this thing! – Santander NY
Coach
"The fact that it's Nike is going to make people want it. Most people
that buy a product aren't really buying the product... they're buying
the name." - OWMS Student
I was in the presence of excellence. These students give me hope
for a bright and safe future. I am feeling so good knowing they will
be my leaders. – Santander NY Coach
Thank you so much for taking the time out of your day to come
meet, and pick our winning team!!" - OWMS Student
