National History Bee Numbers, etc.

Post by Great Bustard »

Currently at 170 JV, 158 Varsity. We will be taking the top 32 into the playoffs in both divisions this year, but it will still be 2 JV in the final match and 4 Varsity students, following NHBB tradition. Rounds will have 35 questions this year, but on average, slightly more players per room (7 is ideal). Most represented school is Ransom Everglades with 24 students. The student from farthest away is from Saipan. Expect Bowl and USGO draws to be available by around Wednesday, and Bee draws Thursday. The next email for the Bowl will go out tomorrow night; a final comprehensive email for Bee, Bowl, and USGO will follow on Wednesday.
Also, there are roughly 85 students in the new US History Bee (one division this year only).
