The PRHS Quiz Bowl staff would like to congratulate Phillips Academy A for winning the PAQT3 event today at Plymouth Regional High School in New Hampshire. Phillips lived up to their pre-season ranking by running the table, going 11-0 on the day. In an exciting playoff game for second place, Acton-B...

Invoices have been sent as well as the logistics letter to the emails listed on the NAQT site. We will see you on Saturday!

troyharris

The field has reached 12 teams and to ensure that we have adequate staffing, we will be closing registration at this time. Any team interested in still signing up can be added to a wait list and we will update you if a space opens up. We look forward to seeing everyone that has signed up on Sept. 21...

troyharris

We are two weeks out from this event to kick off the New England QB season. We still have room if you are interested. Please register directly at the NAQT site.

troyharris

Done and done.

troyharris

Got it, but I need clarification. I believe Oct. 22 is a Tuesday.

troyharris

All set, Vincent.

Actually, it looks like on NJ is up and running, so I will list it until someone picks up that page and runs with it.

troyharris

Lol, never mind, it looks like it is already up and running :).

troyharris

Joe,
I will list these here until NY/NJ/PA/DEL gets a 19-20 date page up and running. At that point, can you submit it to them to keep it consistent with the other regional spots? I don't mind putting it up in the NE forum right now, but it gets a bit cluttered if we don't stick to NE events.

troyharris

Quick note- the set is 185A

troyharris

It is about that time as we start looking towards next year to get tournament announcements going, so I'd be happy to moderate this page (tharris@pemibaker.org) as contact. If somebody else would like to moderate it, please feel free. I will clean it up later with more specifics, but I wanted to get...

troyharris

Vincent,
I'm assuming that you are using the 2019 SCT Division II set?

troyharris

I second what Scott said. I think Troy is going to be a really tough out for anybody at HSNCT.

troyharris

WHIP has concluded and we would like to thank all the teams that attended as well as to thank the Glasgow, KY group that created the Scottie set. It was a well-written set that was fun to play. Lexington dominated the event, going 10-0 and defeated Plymouth (NH) A in the finals match by a score of 4...

We are now making final arrangements for staffing for this event. If you plan to join us, please let us know ASAP. Teams that have already signed up should expect an e-mail early next week with more details and an invoice. Any changes for teams already signed up, please let us know. We are looking f...

troyharris

I absolutely think that being able to see the field will be helpful to you. I can imagine that if someone sees a strong group, or someone who catches their eye, it might spur them to join, too.

troyharris

Is there any way to see the field?

troyharris

This tournament has received gold certification.

troyharris

Why does the sample just keep repeating question one over and over? Am I missing something? Also, agreed, the speed needs to be increased.

troyharris

No matter where you place them, they are really, really good!

troyharris

We are awaiting PACE certification for this event. The previous event was gold certified so we are hoping for the same this time around.

troyharris

Thanks, Charles.

troyharris

With BHSAT set for Feb. 16, Plymouth plans to run a Scottie mirror on February 9.

troyharris

While MSNCT and IS-A are accounted for in Morlan rankings, they have very little effect on the positions of teams in the rankings" Except they do when you look at a team like Belmont, who, at MIT without Cameron, still had a decent tournament, but then had a full team at PAQT the next week and...

troyharris

We used these for our PAQT event this year. The only issue is accounting for substitutes, since there is no "Toss-ups heard" direct column on the sheet. The other drawback is with bounce backs. Since you can't add bonus points without first filling the toss-up side with a number, you eithe...

troyharris

Hi Michael,
I noticed on the History Bowl site that Maine was a potential site. Is that still a possibility?

troyharris

We currently have 13 teams which leaves room for 3 more. We would love to get this up to 16. Logistics for all teams registered will be sent later in the week.

troyharris

Invoices are being sent to teams to prepare for the event. Please note that an additional email is being sent in regard to invoices.

troyharris

PACE has granted this tournament "gold" status. The top 20 percent of the field will qualify for PACE NSC in June.

troyharris

This is the current field as it reads.

troyharris · Re: FAcT XIV @ Yale (09/22/2018; New Haven, CT) Got it. Thanks, Christy.

Got it. Thanks, Christy.

troyharris · Re: FAcT XIV @ Yale (09/22/2018; New Haven, CT) Do you have a field update?

Do you have a field update?

troyharris

Still down. Hopefully this is just temporary.

troyharris

Protobowl was down yesterday for awhile, too. Perhaps they are doing site maintenance in quinterest? It was working last week.

troyharris

Thanks for doing this, Wonyoung. A couple of quick things to add from the New Hampshire end. I agree with your assessments here for the most part here. I would say though that when Plymouth did get it's full A-team together with the seniors, we were very tough to beat, as witnessed by a runner-up fi...

Hey Jeff,
Chad took care of us! Thank you. 176A is the choice.

troyharris

Ok, will do. We were under the assumption that that would be the next set in the series coming out.

troyharris

Plymouth is calling their tournament the PAQT 2. Please note the change where it is listed on the date forum. We have submitted the date of September 22 for approval and are just waiting for the administrative go-ahead.

troyharris

Plymouth would like to tentatively reserve the date of September 22 for the PRAT 2 (Plymouth Regional Academic Tournament). The set is in TBD mode at this point.

I hope that Plymouth will be hosting again next year, as it was great to kick off the season at home. We would love to see more teams from around NE come up. Hopefully we can start getting the ball rolling after PACE. Thanks to all the teams that did host this year, and it looks like at least 3 NH t...

I don't see States Prep Invitational Tournament (SPIT) at Boston Latin on March 24 from Neg5.

troyharris

Hard to argue against Glasgow in the public division, that is true.

troyharris

Wonyoung-I also expect your team to do well there. From the few chances we have had to play your team, your team is quick on the buzzer and has solid canon coverage.

troyharris

I hope to see all New England teams do well at HSNCT. I am especially pulling for Hanover to have a big tournament in Atlanta. As was pointed previously, Gabe does an incredible job coaching them, they are as well-balanced as any team in New England, and have also had some tremendous individual perf...
