Our tournament is now platinum certified by PACE! This means that the top 25% of the field will qualify for the PACE NSC in June.

Regarding potential weather issues: we will notify teams in advance if we decide to postpone to a later date.

Thanks to all the teams who braved the snow to come here today and all the coaches who helped this run smoothly! In addition, special thanks to Ben Herman, Bill Tressler, Chris Chiego, Ryan Bilger, Kurt Bilger, Alex Sankaran, Nick Luca, Ashish Kumbhardare, and all the D-East quizbowl alumni who came to help out.

Lehigh Valley A defeated Manheim Township A to take 1st place, while Centennial A beat Centennial B to claim 3rd. Our top scorer was Alex Schmidt of LVA. Top 5 teams should qualify for HSNCT, and top 8 qualify for PACE.
