Using a disk which is mailed to participating teams, questions and five

other schools. For more information, see http://www.greatuk.com/kmo.html.

buzzer per team (sometimes two) and conferral is permitted at all times. An
incorrect answers causes a deduction of the question’s value; an incorrectly
answered question may not be answered by any other teams.

school can enter. "JV" in this box means that all players must be in
grades 9 or 10 unless otherwise noted; however, some tournaments with JV
divisions do NOT require that JV players be underclassmen; these tournaments
will not have "JV" in the entrance restrictions box. Teams may only

tournament.

all-stars from various schools in the state or may represent a single school.
NAQT:
Winners of all official NAQT events and most unofficial events using NAQT
questions qualify for the NAQT High School Championship Tournament. NAQT also
accepts several automatic qualifiers from each NAQT state championship (roughly
the top ten percent of the field). NAQT also accepts, at its discretion, as
many at-large qualifiers as are needed to fill the national field, with
preference given to teams which did well at events using NAQT questions.

top two teams of officially designated PACE affiliate tournaments with fields
of less than forty teams qualify for the PACE National Scholastics
Championship. The top four teams of officially designated PACE affiliate
tournaments with fields of forty or more teams qualify for the PACE National

discretion, with preference given to teams which finished highly but out of
contention for automatic bids at PACE affiliate events. The top 4 teams from
each PACE NSC qualify for the next year's NSC.
