HS Quiz Bowl at Helias
February 29, 2012
Hallsville High School
from Coach Scott Allen
On Saturday, the Quiz Bowl team participated in the Helias Invitational Tournament. There were 24 schools in attendance from around the state. We took a Varsity team and a JV team. Since this tournament did not have a JV bracket our JV team was able to compete against other school's Varsity teams.
Our JV team went 5-3 for the tournament but did not finish in the top 8. They were led in scoring by Jared Lockwood.
The Varsity team went 4-1 in the morning and qualified for the play-offs. In the play-offs, they won against Richland and Fulton but lost very close matches to Rock Bridge and Hickman. They finished in 6th place for the tournament. Madeline Koenig-Schappe led the Varsity team in scoring and received an individual medal for being the 7th ranked scorer of the tournament.
