Wake Forest -- PenUltimate Report

We arrived at R-MA at 2100hrs after a quick run back from North Carolina to Front Royal. The Awards were tremendous... best in a number of years.

Wake Forest always represents a trial by fire tournament, with many novices getting their first taste of national circuit competition and realizing how far the bar is set. Returners also get the opportunity to test their skills in this early arena. The results for this year reflect past successes and show a new generation of R-MA Speech and Debate is prepared to take up the tradition of excellence.
