This past weekend the Speech and Debate Team attended the Clear Brook Tournament, and came back with plenty of trophies and state points.

In particular, the president, Maria Aykara (12) competed in Foreign Extemp and Student Congress, placing fourth and first overall.

“I would have to say it was a little unexpected, I was definitely surprised, but after three years of hard work, it is worth it,” Aykara said. She looks forward to doing well in both of her events at other tournaments, hoping to gather enough points to compete in the statewide competition, she said.
