November 6th *Westfield UIL Tournament*

Time for our first UIL Tournament of the year! Novice and Varsity teams competed in this one day tournament (a rarity for debate!). WHAT AN ACCOMPLISHED TEAM THIS IS!

Amanda Hernandez (team President) walked away with 2nd overall in Poetry Interpretation, 2nd in Informative Speaking, 2nd in Impromptu, and 1st in Duet Improv. with partner Summer Stanforth.

Summer Stanforth (team Secretary) won 1st place in impromptu speaking, 1st place in Duet Improv. with partner Amanda Hernandez, and 3rd place in Informative Speaking.

Nik Morgan won 3rd place in Persuasive Speaking and 5th Place in Impromptu.

The NOVICE CX team of Alexis Holland and Rachel Clark made it to Semi-Finals in CX-Debate.

It was a very successful tournament, and an awesome way to start off the 2010/2011 UIL Season!
