The University of Missouri-Rolla Academic Competition Organization would like to invite you to our annual Spring High School Tournament, to be held on our scenic campus in Rolla, MO. The tournament will be held on March 3rd, 2007, and we are limiting it to the first 32 teams that register. The field will be divided into two separate divisions for small and large schools. This tournament follows standard MSHSAA rules, and the questions are, as in the past, written by members of our organization.

Base fee: $50
If you bring a buzzer: -$5
If you bring a moderator: -$5
If we have borrowed your buzzer during the past year for a collegiate event: -$5
If you have an alumnus on the UMR team: -$5
If you drove over 100 miles: -$5
If you drove over 200 miles: -$10
If you attended our fall tournament on November 4, 2006: -$10
Minimum amount: $25
Copies of the questions used: $10 (on top of the entry fee)
Second team: $35 (this is on top of what the first team's cost would be)

Please e-mail me at [email protected] to sign up. Registration will begin at 8:15 a.m. on the morning of the tournament, and play will begin at 9:00 a.m. Our tournaments traditionally fill extremely quickly; therefore it is highly advisable to reserve your spot early, and you are more than welcome to reserve your spot before the payment process has been completed. Keep in mind that a team consists of no more than eight players. Also, two weeks before the tournament your teams will be frozen, meaning if you need to drop a team after this deadline you are still responsible for the registration fee.

Please do not hesitate to e-mail me if you have any questions. Weâ€™re looking forward to seeing you and your team this season!

Sincerely,
Matt Chadbourne
President, UMR Academic Competition Organization

Dude, this tournament already has 19 teams registered! Talk about early registering...

Anyway, if any of you want to go, register quickly. This is a really good tournament (at least, that's my opinion as a player).

The results are in for the UMR Spring Tournament.

Liberty captured the large-school championship, defeating Fort Zumwalt West A in the finals, and New Madrid County Central defeated Rolla for third place. In the small-school division, Richland A defeated Cuba for the title, and Thomas Jefferson claimed third place by defeating South Pemiscot.

Complete results can be found on our website:

(Note that the online stats rank teams according to won-loss record and points per game, not final playoff standings, so the team rankings aren't completely accurate. The bracket at the bottom of the page does reflect final playoff standings.)

We'd like to thank everyone for coming to our tournament, and we hope everyone had as much fun participating as we did hosting.
