Student mechanics from Bolton High and Collierville High were the top two teams in the 63rd annualTennessee Ford/AAA Autoskills competition. Michael Morra and Tim Stewart of Bolton won first place, and Brian Ritchie and Billy Rainey of Collierville placed second.

The Ford/AAA Autoskills competition is a nation-wide automotive technology challenge that brings together the best of the country’s future automotive technicians. At the state finals, student teams raced against the clock to correctly diagnose and repair deliberately “bugged” Ford vehicles. The Bolton and Collierville teams were the only two to find and repair all 10 of the intentionally installed electrical and mechanical “bugs” on their 2012 model Ford Fusions, earning them thousands of dollars in college scholarships and new tools.
