History Bee Winners - 2011/2012

[Standard-winged Nightjar]

Here's a quick overview of the Bee winners at each tournament for Varsity and JV, with total preliminary scores noted. #V and #JV refers to the number of Varsity and JV students who played that day. Note that in certain cases the Champion did not necessarily have the high prelim score. Congratulations to all our Champions! We look forward to seeing you all and all those who qualified at our National Championships in April!

*** = At the Guam tournament only, there was a separate middle school division won by Lenny Calvo of Bishop Baumgartner Middle School in a field of 13 with a prelim score of 12 in one round only. Also, note that the Guam Varsity and JV Bees also only had one round; hence the lower scores there.

Moderators: When I typed up the above post, it was all formatted fine, though the spacing is ignored when it actually gets posted. Any way to fix this, so it doesn't look like the above mess?

You can embed a table using the [code] tags.

Okay, just am not sure how that works. My attempt at it went nowhere (see other thread).

Thanks to Jon Pinyan and Matt Weiner for helping advise me regarding fixing the above table, which now looks much better. This took a lot of trial and error, but the combination of putting it into Notepad, cutting and pasting, and then fiddling with it to get it aligned finally worked.
