Re: Minnesota '09-'10

Going into the tournament, the four teams I thought we had the greatest change of losing to were STA, SPC, DLS, and Chaska. Of these four, we only played SPC (albeit twice), in part since all four of them ended up on the other side of the playoff bracket from us. If the tournament had been brackete...

Re: Minnesota '09-'10

Any news on NASAT tryouts? I do remember seeing that that HSAPQ tryout set would be available in March, and we don't really have any tournaments scheduled in March, so.... I mean, I can't imagine that the tryouts (if they are held) would have more than 10-15 people or use too many resources. Also, I...

I'd definitely also be interested in NASAT, but my number one concern is funding....

Re: Minnesota '09-'10

After reading the current NAQT IS discussion thread, I was glad to see that MN had some (what seem like) high scoring games compared to the national average. In addition, 5(?) teams scored above 17PPB, and EP scored around 21(?). The bonuses were noticeably harder, but I really enjoyed the depth of ...

Re: HSAPQ National All Star Academic Tournament in 2010

What do you think would be a good way to get statewide selection (maybe tryouts, I hope not T_T) in Minnesota? Should I contact the Dep. of Education to see if I can get them interested? Or should I just go to R. Hentzel for his opinion? From what I've researched, MN has sent a team to PAC before bu...

Re: Minnesota '09-'10

Max.... You managed to spell "DeLaSalle" three different ways in the course of that paragraph. East division of the league is meeting on Thursday.... we'll have to see how that goes. Robin Heinonen has especially strong Megashark knowledge. I'm pretty sure Jordan and Trevor from the 08-09 ...

Re: 2009 Gopher Invitational @ UMN - December 5

Hi,
Looks like last year every team played around 10 games. I can't remember the actual format, but I feel like it was 5-6 prelims and some sort of playoff bracketing. Will it be as many games this year?

Minnesota '09-'10

I'm not sure if many MN highschoolers are on this site, but I do remember that Chris Carter and Sam Peterson did post pretty frequently and MN has a wealth of college quizbowlers.

Season kicks off Oct. 31st if we don't have another Ubu Roi this year. I'm excited.
