GMU Debate Tournament

I tried to send email updates to the blog all weekend but none of them got through. Irritating, especially since we have such great news!

Ben Nelson got his first break in Lincoln Douglas, getting into the octofinal round after an excellent performance in the six out rounds.

In Public Forum, Jon Pederson and Micah Peregrino did well but didn't break. Jackson McGraw and Valerie Pratt went all the way to Finals, and finished in second place!

Next up: a WACFL tournament this Saturday at South Lakes High School in Reston. Our next national-level tournament is the Liberty Bell Invitational at U Penn in Philadelphia, February 19-20. And of course, every two weeks, we're back on the airwaves on WFTR.
