Re: College Decisions-Class of 2017

Reporting on frequent tournament attenders from Rock Bridge (we have a ton of seniors, so I'm gonna limit it to people who have been moderately active) I am going to Columbia in NYC, I'll look into staying involved to some extent probably, guess I should message Ben Zhang. I think I'm the only one w...

Re: Rock Bridge (Almost) Spring Tournament on 01/21/17

Due to a couple last minute drops we have decided to postpone our tournament until March 18. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Re: WHIT II (Washington High) 12/3

Michael, your wins were definitely impressive. Before this tournament we weren't too familiar with you, likely because you don't come to mid-Missouri too often, but now you're definitely on our radar. We have very noticeable weaknesses in music and science and you did not have any noticeable weaknes...

Re: Thoughts on the 2016-2017 Season

Rock Bridge-They lose Luke Chval and some other A team members, but Nathan is still around. This team, I think, has some uncertainty surrounding it I guess since we were mentioned I'll talk about us a little to clear up some of the uncertainty. We lose Luke and Derek Wang from our full time A team,...

Rock Bridge is also currently 6-3. We also have been talking to Helias and they have unfortunately been eliminated.

Re: College Decisions-Class of 2016

I think I'm the only one on my team on these forums besides Irwin, so I guess I'll post for my teammates even though I'm a junior. Luke will be going to Notre Dame and Derek still hasn't made his decision and isn't really making his selection process known to anyone at school. If I remember, I'lll u...

Re: 2016 NAQT Missouri Qualifier: March 5 at Columbia College

Columbia College makes a great host for quiz bowl tournaments, it was quite the well-run tournament on the part of MQA, especially for such a large tournament. For those wanting to know, last I heard there was an advantage final between Hickman and Washington, with Washington holding the advantage. ...

Re: What's the matter with Kansas City?

Before we all start talking out of turn and make a mess may I point out these are not issues some of us take lightly and have not been working on for years albeit with intense frustration? And that it is far easier to Monday Morning quarterback than it is to do on a week by week, school by school b...

Re: What's the matter with Kansas City?

One thing I noticed in Columbia that helped grow the programs at Rock Bridge and Hickman is middle school quiz bowl. West in Columbia is the only one of the six middle schools in the city to have a quiz bowl team (Edit: I had it pointed out to me that Lange sent a team to a tournament in November fo...

Re: Kewpie Academic Tournament III at Hickman - Feb. 27, 2016

Yeah, Hickman cleared the field, we (Rock Bridge) got second after being automatically placed in the second/third game based on ppg, beating Helias who played against Hallsville for the right to play us. I'm pretty sure Hickman destroyed everyone today. That's the first time we've played them all ye...

Re: MOQBA Fall Tournament - December 12, 2015 (Columbia College)

Great tournament, Hickman and Hannibal are both really good teams, congratulations to both. This tournament really highlighted some communication issues for our Rock Bridge team. Hopefully by the next tournament (Tiger Bowl?) we can iron those out.

Re: Congratulations are in order

Decided to bump because I know that Alex's teammate at Hickman, Amanda Sun, also aced her ACT and my teammate at Rock Bridge, Derek Wang, similarly received a 36 on his ACT. I think they also deserve some recognition and would like to congratulate both of them, as well as Alex.

Re: Hallsville Fall Academic Tournament III (10/10/15)

Looking at the stats for this tournament and I must say I am incredibly impressed with how much Washington has improved. We all knew that Hannibal and Hickman would be very good, and I was definitely expecting Washington to be right there at the next tier, but I was not expecting them to get that cl...
