Junior Varsity, and Varsity teams. Traveling to Invi- tationals in Minnesota, South Dako- ta, Iowa, Wisconsin, and Illinois proves the high regard in which our team is held. At these tournaments only the top two schools are recog- nized. In order to prepare for the debate tournaments, some of the debaters went to summer institutes. At these institutes the debaters spent many hours of the day study- ing ways in which to improve therh- selves as debaters. Our debaters have done an outstanding job by winning approximately 30 trophies from November to January. These are only a few of the tropies that the Debate club has won .
