182.8 sweepstakes points; i believe we have set another team record with this number! it is also a number that is competitive with carroll college typical scores

1st place overall sweepstakes!

in addition to the trophy winners below, congrats to everyone. people who did not advance did very, very well. many of you just missed breaking in ie's--almost all of our ie's were in the top 10; the improvement people are making in parli and policy is significant and i am looking very forward to oregon!

we did stunningly well folks.

we scored 230 nfc points! that is just amazing! another new record.

i'm guessing that carroll got about 315 points which is unbelievable.

the fact is: at the whitman tournament, we very seriously have a strong chance of beating carroll what with katie being back in action, todd and gabe participating, extemp and nfa ld being offered, and keola, julie and i have some surprises coming up that are going to give us that 85 point boost we need.

GONZAGA RESULTS

charles and thad won the final round!

jim :)

-----Original Message-----

thad and Charles are in the final round against Gonzaga LM

Beth and Emily dropped in quarters to Gonz. LM.

I had a perfect record, judging every round correctly.

Jim fed us well. Brian was coachly.

If you see a CEDA debater, give them a pat on the back, they did well at

their first tourney!! (despite my constant attempt to distract

them...hehehe)

Keola

brian and michael and joey and dave lost on 2-1 decisions in octas. dang it!

we now go to quarters tomorrow.

jim :)

we have four teams (out of 11 total) in elims.

emily and beth are 6-0

thad and i are 5-1

we got byes into the quarters

brian and mike were 5-1 and should have gotten a bye into quarters except

weird bracket breaking got in the way.

dave and joey were 4-2 and are debating in the partial octos.

beth was 8th speaker

emily c. was 7th

brian was 6th

thad was 3rd

i was 1st

they didn't give me one of those sweet signed basketballs, though,

unfortunately.
