SCJFL 3rd Quarter Debate Tournament at Ribet Academy – February 27th, 2016
Eighty-nine students from twelve schools attended the third league tournament on 2/27 at Ribet Academy. Eight Kudos public forum teams attended the tournament. Three of the teams broke and two placed.
Teams Ethan Chang and Aaron Zhang, together with Anabell Xu and Raymond Mo, both teams broke to Octafinal, and further competed in the Quarter Final Round (top 8 teams). Anabell and Raymond won that round, but was announced to have finished in sixth place. Kudos Coach Perez checked with the tab room to see whether there was any mistake, the reply was that the tab decided to tabulate the final places taking all the previous round results instead of just the Quarter Final results.
It was announced that Ethan Zhang and Aaron Zhang finished in seventh place and Anabell Xu and Raymond Mo finished in sixth place. Emma Chen and Nanette Zhang also broke at the tournament but were walked over in the octafinal round by Ethan and Aaron.
Among the 54 debaters in Public Forum, Kudos contestants Aaron Lee was the 4th Speaker while Ethan Chang was ranked as the 7th Speaker!
Good work, all Kudos teams!
