Re: Kentucky 2013-14

We're still here. We had several recent tournaments fall through because of severe weather or tournament cancellation (Rowdy Raider, Glasgow, Ballard-Eastern) but we are entered in NAQT State and Vandy's Prison Bowl mirror in addition to Governor's Cup.

Re: BISB Specific Question Discussion

In that case, the particular question I had in mind was probably a kidney tossup that accepted (or prompted on) nephron early because I know someone else on my team powered it.

Re: BISB Specific Question Discussion

I'll preface this by saying that I am not exactly a science person, although it isn't my worst subject and I did take AP Bio last year, so I may be biased and/or wrong.

Re: Kentucky 2012-13

St. X led by 1 point at the end of the second half of the quick recall final, but after inquiries, Pikeville ended up winning by 1. Both teams played very well. Manual and Dunbar (who were unfortunate enough to play each other in the quick recall Round of 16) ended up as co-champions overall, seemin...

Re: Glasgow (KY) Invitational (12/15/12)

On behalf of our entire team (The Plastics), I would like to thank the tournament directors, especially Mr. Garrison, for accommodating the unique circumstances surrounding our entry.
