DI eXtreme:

Putting things off until the last minute is a way of life when you're in college, but with DI eXtreme, university level teams are able to capitalize on their eleventh hour techniques since they begin working on their solutions for only a day and a half before presenting to a full house at Global Finals. This year, we were able to follow some of these eXtreme teams as they worked on their challenges in the Tinker Tank and kept their cool despite planned disruptions and limited time constraints.
