The students you see here and one more who couldn’t be with us today are beyond amazing. When quiz bowl began, three were on swim team, two played basketball, one was in All State Choir and one in All State Band. Some have jobs, all are in band, jazz band, some in jazz choir, some in student council, speech events, and now have track and soccer. Four of them were in the recent musical, Annie.
In spite of this they make time to practice at least once a week and put their best effort into each tournament we enter. The team is made up of 4 sophomores and 3 freshmen. They face teams of juniors and seniors as easily now as they faced other novice teams at the beginning of the season.
We are so proud of them and the futures they have before them.
Today they claimed the Western Iowa Conference Quiz Bowl Title.
Next Saturday they compete in a state tournament in Waukee.
