Senior High Quiz Bowl has been working hard this 3rd quarter to prepare for several events. Our team has recently competed in 2 events within the last few weeks. B103.1 out of Nebraska City hosts a radio quiz bowl event that starts in February. Southern had 4 students (Olive Sabey-Vogele, Emma Spencer, Carsen Goes, and Lily Dyer)who competed against 19 other local teams. Unfortunately, Southern did not have the best of luck with questions and was eliminated from the tournament and ended in a tie for 12th place.

Southern also competed in a tournament to see who will make it to the State competition in April. Southern competed against 15 other ESU5 teams. Below is our photo of our team from the event. From the left is Lily Dyer, Alex Kelsay, Carsen Goes, Emma Spencer, and Olive Sabey-Vogele. The top 2 teams from the area qualify for the State competition in Hastings. Southern ended up in 8th place and missed out on an opportunity to make it to the state competition. We have 3 remaining competitions in March and April. The Pioneer Conference tournament is on March 19th in Diller-Odell, the David City Invitational is on March 22nd, and the MUDECAS tournament is on April 16th in Bruning-Davenport.
