Speech and Debate Just sitting around—Assistant speech coach Ben Koppel sits while waiting for a speaker. Hellgate has the largest speech and debate team in Missoula. The team is made up of freshman, sophomores, juniors, and seniors. The team competes in eight or nine meets a year all over western Montana. There are two debate events and seven speech events. In debate there is team debate and Lincoln- Douglas. In speech there is ex- pository, original oratory, im- promptu, serious and humorous in- terpretation, memorized public ad- dress and extemporanious speaking. This year at the state meet, which was held in Missoula, Hellgate placed fifth. Individual winners were Tara Hayes, who took second in expository speak- ing, Ann Eagle took third in im- promptu, Sarah Harington took third in memorized public add- dress and Amina Chaddar and John Lott placed eighth in team debate.
