It was a great day for the Minden H.S. Quiz Bowl teams at Gothenburg! The A team was perfect at the tournament, winning all their matches for a 4-0 record. Holdrege also finished the day unbeaten, but unfortunately the two teams never met head-to-head. The tie-breaker was "most points scored," and Holdrege edged out Minden to claim the championship. Minden was undefeated, but finished as the Runner-Up.
The Minden B team was IMPRESSIVE today at the Gothenburg Quiz Bowl, going undefeated for the day and earning 1st place in the JV division.
Congratulations to the Whippet Speech Team on a great day at the Southwest Conference Speech Meet! The team finished as the SWC Runner Up!!
