2022 MS Warrior Classic IV

Post by ssobieck »

The 2022 Warrior Classic Middle School Tournament IV will be held on March 26, 2022, hosted at B. Reed Henderson High School in West Chester, PA. We will be using NAQT MS-41 at this tournament. Schools may register at the NAQT site. Please designate the number of teams, buzzer systems, and moderators for your school. The tournament is capped at 18 teams overall with 3 teams/school at this point. If more staffing becomes available, the caps will increase.

Doors open at 8 AM, with Round 1 starting at 9:00. The contact person is Steve Sobieck: [email protected]. If paying by check, please make checks payable to "WCASD."

Fee Structure:
$70 for the first team
$65 for each additional team
$50 for a first time NAQT participant

$5 off for each functioning buzzer system
$10 off for each experienced moderator

The minimum fee is $50 per team.

Up to 6 players may play on one team. If a school wishes to bring more than 6 players, then it will have to register a second team.

The tournament format will include preliminary round-robins, with rebracketed playoffs in the afternoon. The exact number of games will be determined by the final field size. Rounds will be untimed, with 20 tossups and 20 bonuses, worth up to 30 points each. The top 15% of the field, rounded up, will qualify for NAQT's 2022 MSNCT, held in at the Hyatt Regency at O'Hare Airport, Chicago, IL from May 6-8, 2022 (Mother's Day weekend).

Henderson High School is located at 400 Montgomery Ave, West Chester, PA. Henderson is located one mile west from the Paoli Pike exit on U.S. 202. Parking is on the east side of Montgomery Avenue. An additional parking lot is on the west side of Montgomery Ave (left-hand side driving north on Montgomery Ave next to the football field).

Congratulations to Berwick A winning the 2022 Warrior Classic Middle School Tournament, besting Great Vally A in the championship match. Peirce A captured third place in its win over Queen of Angels. All three Queen of Angels teams are to be commended as they are a newly formed quiz bowl team and this was their first live competition.

All school and teams are also commended for participating in the first in-person middle school tournament in two years. The coaches and players showed enthusiasm and flexibility throughout the day's competition. It was a great pleasure in hosting the tournament for all the visiting teams and we look forward to hosting the middle school again next year.

A special thanks goes to the volunteers, Henderson alumni, and Henderson Academic team for staffing the tournament. The event would not have been possible without your time and generosity.

Thank you, Coach Sobieck, and everyone at WC Henderson who made us welcome. An excellent group of readers and great competition from the SE PA and Delaware students made it a great experience for our students. Middle-school quiz bowl in Pennsylvania needs all the support that it can get -- again, thank you for offering this opportunity and hosting a professional and fun tournament for students!
