3 Top 10's @ UNT Debate Tournament

The Judge Barefoot Sanders Law Magnet Debate team had 3 Top Ten finishes this weekend. Colton Donica and Lucero Pina finished tied for 9th place in Varsity CX. In the Varsity LD competition, Kelsey Annu-Essuman broke to "out rounds" again. This time finishing ninth and earning an additional TFA point. Karla Brother-Lopez and Ivan Garcia became the first Novice CX team to make it to the elimination rounds. They amassed an impressive 4-1 record in the prelims and also finished tied for ninth.

Harvey Luna also competed as a cross-over entry in VLD as a last minute substitute. Competing in his first ever VLD debate tournament, Harvey competed in a break round. He only missed breaking by dropping a very close round to one of the Hockaday girls who closed out the tournament. We shouldn't be surprised if he breaks next week at the Hockaday tournament.

Finally, I would like to thank Zavier Wingham and Sarah Delgado for all their help in coordinating between the widely scattered buildings at the tournament.
