BHS, RHS teams on national stage
No debate about it: Our forensics teams' tops
This just in from Brentwood High School forensics coach, Harriet Medlin:
Dear Friends and Forensic Supporters,
We are back from NFL Nationals (June 13-20 in Birmingham), and I wanted to share the good news with you: Katie Thornton and Marshall Cottrell placed 6th in the nation in Public Forum Debate !
Last Monday, when competition began, there were 231 Public Forum debate teams. After 4 days and 14 rounds of debate competition, 6 teams were left standing. As one of the top 6 teams, Katie and Marshall got to appear on stage at the awards ceremony to receive their big, beautiful trophies. I got to be on stage with them to be recognized as their coach. It was all very exciting!
Our last time on the big stage was when Rob Weller placed 7th in Congress. BHS had the only winners from Tennessee in a main event. Hannah Andrews from Ravenwood placed 6th in Storytelling, a consolation event. Hannah and her coach, Kari Cheri Himelrick Smith, got to be on the big stage, too.
So, Brentwood and Ravenwood were the only winners from Tennessee! How sweet is that!
Our other kids did well, too. Will Stern advanced 4 rounds in Extemp Commentary (top 80 out of 340 entries), his supplemental event, and Patrick Kellett advanced three rounds (top 100 out of 561 entries) in Impromptu speaking, his consolation event.
