CHARLOTTE, NC — Civil Engineering students from UNC Charlotte are hoping for national glory.

They've won the regional, now they're heading to San Diego for the National Concrete Canoe Competition.

The students had to make their own boat made out of a concrete mixture. Believe it or not, if you're an engineering student, you can make concrete float.
