Glendale Community College State Debate Tournament:

In the Public Forum division, the team of Anabell Xu and Raymond Mo was tournament champions.

The teams of Iris Choi and Max Xiao and Merry Jiao and Nanette Zhang reached the octafinal round (top 16).
Anabell and Raymond were able to win despite having the highest opponent wins in the entire tournament (the teams that they debated had an opponent win total of 18, meaning that five teams they debated averaged 3.6 wins each).

The team of Aaron Zhang and Ethan Chang also finished with a winning record, but missed breaking to elimination rounds on tiebreakers.

Overall, the seven Kudos teams won twenty-four rounds.
