Hold The Applause. First Place Goes To- PYRAMID OF POWER Focusing on famty ties. Speech and Debate became a family, albeit not the traditional kind. With their first state championship behind them, they focused on A 1 quality. By the end of tournament day, the Speech and De- bate team had good reason to be proud and cheer. Awards ceremonies were the climax of a physically and emotionally grueling IB- 20 hour event at which com- petitors were proven to be worthy of the state cham- More than anything we learned respect. I might not agree with someone, but I always respect his ability. -Kristen Pond, senior pionship. Before dawn, members were on the team bus mak- ing last minute changes and giving caffeine induced pep talks. Then began the long ritual of rushing, waiting, and praying. Students hurried to register early, only to discov- er that the first round wasn't until two hours later. Every- one seemed to get lost as useless maps were scat- tered. Running from event to event, competitiors learned the art of leaning ear to door to hear ’courtesy claps,' a sign they could enter be- tween speeches. Debators argued LDC's and WWIII, the Speech team interpreted scenes, and ev- eryone missed lunch. Since most rounds ran late, those left behind scrounged for stale french fries and warm, flat Coke. Semi-finals were posted. --------1 tears were shed for joy and for some, disappointment. Finals! While some members changed, those lucky few psyched themselves up one last time for ’the big one.' The awards assembly be- came the place to relax and cheer. Pressure was off, and the reward for hard work was on stage. The team got sweeps and every person was a winner, first place or not.
