it was an okay tournament. a lot of the questions weren't that great. one-liner tossups, tossup related PLEASE MAKE FUN OF ME BECAUSE I SPEAK NEITHER LATIN NOR ENGLISH, etc. The 'lightning round' was an interesting take. I personally think Montverde holds a better tournament in this format.

Here is quick post of teams that have expressed interest in TaylorBowl thus far.

Heritage High School (Conyers, GA)
Suwannee
Wakulla

Has anyone been able to contact Byron about the Savannah Country Day School tournament? My team wishes to attend and have emailed him about it but we haven't been received any responses from him.

Due to low amount of teams expressing interest in FallBrawl, I regret to announce that the tournament has been cancelled. We are close to finalizing a date for Taylor Bowl for early next year. We hope you can come and compete.
