A question on making MSNCT

Post by quizbowlcaptain »

Hello there, My team is about to play in an NAQT tournament, the high school division is using NAQT questions, whil the MS division (my division) is not, would my team still be able to make nationals under those conditions?

The middle school division would not be a qualifier in this case (because it is not using NAQT questions). That being said, we encourage teams with strong performances on non-NAQT sets to apply for wildcards once those are available next month.
